Being Met

8/13/09

Many an idea falls

from lack of medium

to push up against,

the seed needs soil

as resistance to formulate

itself and chose direction,

rooting down, strong, deep,

yet still demanding more

water, air, sun, earth,

vital nurturance for growth

which develops it's character

in every evolving stage,

so often just gestating

building the inner energy

necessary for next phase,

what will appear physically,

unique in form, function,

surprising as original entity

though same species surrounds,

there is marked difference

even within inner stamina,

one's ability to persevere

when life's storms hit,

becoming rare essence embodied

attracting a pollinating stimulator

that vibrates vital fecundity

essential to being met.
