Seeds need
Sunlight
To grow into a flower
If it stays inside, crinkle. it will not bloom
It needs sunlight to bloom, shwip! a flower
Explore the world, the fields, the park
It needs curiosity to bloom, pop! a flower
We all need to explore and love
Because, you know what?

I wrote this poem because I wanted to illustrate that we need to go outside and explore the world, because we often forget that. As kids, most of us went outside and played or used our imagination. A lot of people don't do that any more, and it's sad that we lose it. I'm guilty of it too, but i'm getting better at it, and everyone else can too.
