Growing (Tanka #8)

Tanka #8 Let me know what you think!

                

             From a seed in the ground

In the earth is where I am found

I lie in wait to grow

Beyond the soil,grass and the stones

I emerge as flower, grown

Much like life really. You can try to grow the most exotic and luscious rose the likes of which the world has never seen yet - if you try to grow it in hard lifeless soil, your efforts will have been for naught.

The beautiful and lovely Rose grows best surrounded by fertilizer. Think about the next time a bully gets you down. That which doesn't kill you not only makes you stronger - but smarter. :)

Your words are true. Life is similar to a flower. Need TLC to grow strong. Also need love and tenderness to stay strong and beautiful. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
