To live my life

Like that of a plant

Is to follow the laws of nature

Not the nature of man

Whose capacity to think

Turns order into chaos

Where heart and mind divide

Disrupting the balance nature sows

Among sunlight air, water and earth

The seeds of creation and renewal

In life’s synchronized harmony

Where coexisting diversity thrives

Like the variety of flowers

Whose colors shapes and sizes

Epitomize beauty and love

As if by divine design

To which man belongs

Yet, by choice succumbs

To greed self-interest and isms

The antithesis of nature’s way

Of freedom from negativity  

In minds rooted in silence

Hence, I resolve to bloom

Like flowers, not wither

Entangled in mankind’s vines

Where greed, and ego intertwine.
