They Also Took a Fall

 

The mighty oak tall, is seen by all.

While the acorn small, sits where it falls.

Some of those fallen seeds are for food.

Some are crushed, rendering them no good.

Others, though they also took a fall,

Grow into an oak, mighty and tall.

Simple, but beautiful. There's a real meaning behind this piece. It sort of reminds me of a parable in the Bible...I forget the name of it, but it talked about how where seeds land effect how they grow. This has got the same concept. We all fall sometimes, but it's all about how we deal with it. That's my interpretation at least ^^

I love the flow of the piece and your rhyming is flawless. Great work!

A beautiful, bittersweet vision of life... how some stand out, grow so strong and vibrant and others fall by the wayside... Powerful write!
