A Tree


A Tree

As each leaf falls
The tree slowly sheds
All of what it has
Knowing that Spring will bring new blooms
Still facing the long Winter alone.

We are all like a tree
We shed not leaves nor skin
But the stages of life.

As survivors we are even more like a tree
When we are victimized
We loose all of our leaves
Then we to go through a long Winter alone.

Spring comes
And so do the blooms
Though each bloom may not be as pretty as the rest
It could be discolored
A different shape
And that’s OKay!

That’s what gives us individuality
It’s what sets us apart from the rest
With that we become stronger
Realizing its okay
And that we can make it!

As the year goes on we loose a leaf or two
It shows that we are growing
Taking that chance and not being scared
To loose the leaves we have come Fall
Realizing that there will be less discolored 
and odd shaped leaves come spring.
Now looking forward to spring
Knowing that the blooms will be perfect

Though this may be a long process

Imagine what a beautiful tree you will be....
