Lessons from an Apple Tree
A single seed is buried beneath the soil.
Nurtured by its home.
It grows from a dot
To an arm reaching for the sky.
The apples dangle by a thread.
Some fall to the ground and serve as dinner to deer.
Some are ripped from their suspension by
Human hands for a snack.
Selflessness. To give gifts with
Receiving nothing in return.
Take opportunities
And make something out of them.
