Saplings spring from the earth.
From lively vegetation to the hot dusty deserts,
The trees and plants begin to grow.
Each one growing uniquely.
Producing huge forests of biodiversity.

Each tree, is each person.
This forest, just the forest of life.
As trees grow, we learn.
And each branch, an experience.
Each leaf, an emotion felt.
Every knick and dent, just a problem we faced.
A fruit or flower, an achievement.
In the end, leaves shed, leaving memories behind.
We are at the end of our lifetime.
The roots are our lasting mark.

Every root planted in the ground,
Our lifetime goals.
Sustained in the soil long after,
The world can see our accomplishments.
