I am a seed.
Planted in the ground.
The winters around me prevent my leaves from sprouting to see the sun blazing all around.
Other plants expect me to be content with what I am.
"There's more than this to be found than what I am,now."
For in the Spring time. When all the clouds of others contempt
and assumption of what should make me content melts like the snows on the ground.
I shall sprout my leaves. I shall become a beautiful flower.
"Now look at what was once just what he was. Now with more color. To be allowed to show my true abilities. I have become more than I was. A flower. To dazzle and comfort, through my new found colors, all of those who view me from all around."
