Array ( [sid] => 58323 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Seed I Am [time] => 2004-07-31 19:46:38 [hometext] => Inspired by the philosophies behind the SEED commandos in FInal Fantasy VII. Are we all not seeds planted to grow and enrich this world of ours, the progenitors of future change and the evolvements of our separate social, cultural and religious ideals? [bodytext] => A seed I am,
A notion perhaps,
Or am I something more.

The wellspring of a thought,
The consignings of belief,
Or the conclave of ideals.

Born to construe,
Planted to grow,
Or left to endeavour.

The constrainings of chance,
The parodies of fate,
Or the fulfillment of destinies.

Instilled by life,
Conditioned by knowledge,
Or evolved intrinsically.

A planted tree,
A weed some doubt,
Or overgrown shrubbery.

Watered by experience,
Enriched by dreams,
Or cajoled in a nursery.

A seed I am,
A seed indeed,
The portends of the times,
The maturings of this age. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 224 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Baronhawk [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

We are seedling that need sustenance, nurturing and love to become strong and survive in our environment. Without these things we wither on the vine. With them we can flourish and become strong and beautiful and enhance the world around us.

This is an intellectual poem. It was rich and written like a pro.

Although I have no clue about the commando's or the final fantasy! But that doesn't matter cause in my imagination lurks a sleeping warrior.

Now suddenly I wish I knew some sort of martial arts so I could do a kick/flip thingy and all that other stuff...

Ah Fair Baronhawk, I'm just that much of an adverturer that i loved to think your seed was planted by hand.......to flurious through out all the land......perhaps sprouting with poems for a blossom, and then flowers of philosophy for the notion!
I love your reasoning, baronhawk......to you others will flock!
Great write
Poetic hugs to you
