All Comes to an End
A seed slowly glides toward the ground,
The wind blows away dirt for a landing
It calmly lands without a sound
Its next phase begins
Two lovers meet
A child is born
Its little laugh is sweet
As its growing phase begins
The seed has now grown into stem
It cowers below the flowers
With much more potential
Being cared for is essential
The child is now a teenager
While looking forward to making money,
The child needs to choose a major
His parents care for him dearly
With all of its petals,
It stands along with its friends
It begins to release its seeds
Trying to avoid the weeds
The child is now an adult
He thrives with a family
In a home as a result
He raises his children
The flower begins its last phase
It shrivels its petals
As it decomposes
Its story closes
The child is now old and sick
He has fulfilled his course
His days come to an end
As his soul’s energy completes its descent
