PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There are some things

that are just ingrained

in us like rings on a tree.



We all grow based on

our hereditary structure

where roots give stability.



But sometimes our

environment can determine

how we will mature.



We may branch out

into muddier terrain

and lose our footing.



We may be uprooted

by the ax of society

and become stunted.



But at the end of life’s cycle,

we all become mulch,

enriching the next generation.
