Oh! What is Man, that thou art mindful of him?
Man!!!
An esteemed cruse,
An embedded creature,
An epitome of beauty,
An expertise.
Man!!!
An Island of growth,
A prepared seedbed,
An Oasis,
A Cistern.
Man!!!
A buried seed,
A conceived seedling,
A watered plant,
A blossom flower.
Man!!!
With shared dominion,
With multiple offspring,
With diverse race, tribe and culture
Within the globe.
Man!!!
Oh, that thou would live thy life!
To please thy creator,
Unleash thy obscure endowment,
And utilize thy resources.
Man!!!
An infused personality.
Hope: To brighten thy day,
Lighten thy path,
Feed thy plants.
Man!!!
A distinct being.
Love: To bury thy seeds,
Aid thy growth,
Deepen thy roots.
Man!!!
A separate entity.
Charity: To soften thy grounds,
Purify thy life,
Quench thy thirst.
Man!!!
A dissimilar individual.
Faith: To enrich your land,
Compact thy soil,
Catalyze thy growth.
Man!!!
I plead with thou;
Digest these data,
Process thy inspiration,
Widen thy understanding.
Man!!!
Deaden thy seeds;
To sprout,
To come to limelight,
And gain attention.
Man!!!
Thou art an object of transformation
Thy seeds become seedlings
Thy flowers become fruits
Thou art undergoing regeneration.
Man!!!
Thou hath been photoactivated,
Never get stunted.
Prevent thy leaves from chlorosis.
Crave for more input, even when thou hath become a Tree.
Man!!!
Let mankind draw from thy vast knowledge.
Become a pillar in thy field.
Let’s know that thou art filled.
And make Royalty beam.
