Growth
Updated: Jun 26, 2020

Pushing up and down
Roots are strengthened in patience and trust
Gaining nutrients beneath the layers of soil and ancestry
Shoot up through dirt and blades of grass
Barks exposing what is necessary in order to spread limbs and bear fruit
green broad leaves play with the wind
As limbs dance and reach upward
Still standing
after cycles of shedding, renewing
After hurt and disaster
Still standing
Healing and growing
