Like a seed
Today, I want to unleash my spirit like a
seed
The solid surface of life will not stand
on my way
Not even the uncultured negative forces
of life will touch me
I will awaken my being and sprout out of
my comfort zone
I will emerge as a tiny speck of an
unknown truth
A little misunderstood branch of life
will be revealed
I will be the spiritual force behind so
many of the vital organs of life
Like a seed, I will undress myself of all
my mystical nature
And endeavour to cover the canopy of life
with the fruits of the spirit
I will create a niche for all goodhearted
people to inhabit
And will make a garden of peace for the
warring tribes of the world
Like a seed, I am more than a force of
life
I am the fragrance of life and I am the
colours of life
I am the nutrition of the world and I am
the medicine of the world
I am not bothered by all these
achievements
I will give you shade to rest your
troubled heart
I will nurture and nourish your spirit
Like a seed, I will unveil my petals and
my secrets
All of the world will know the true
colours of the spirit
This is not a new gospel, it is the
spirit of goodness
The nature of all living things is to
manifest the true colours of life
And I am about to erupt from the hard
surface of the unknown mystery
To taste the open skies and be a tree of
life
It is with utmost satisfaction that I
declare my mission
Like a seed, I am a missionary of life
