With the cracked ground
Starving for water,
There begins a new thought
The little sapling caught
Between two worlds-
The sky beckoning and the ground seizing.
It begins its journey
On the unprecedented
Shying away from all adversity
In what it deems possible.
Goes on and on,
Gathering all energy and vigour
Standing firmly to the ground
All the while reaching for the sky.
And when it looked beneath
saw that it wasn’t the
Lone forlorn tree anymore.
