Who I be...
Conceived in the midst of a fertile womb
Spouted out, seeking my moment in the sun
Had to learn to hold my own amid the crowd
Hunkered down, buffed up, and blowed out
Endured many storms, losing parts of me
Withstood floods that surrounded my feet
Bent, didn't break; leaned, didn't fall
For some, I was a sight to see
Some mused of various things I could be
Used at other's convenience
Took up residence within my space
Ran over me, ran around me, picked my fruit
Like the seasons, I went through change
I've been pruned, cut so I could grow out
Shedding stuff along the way added to my stay
I've matured; I've endured; Secure being me
Stronger, rooted, grounded, just like a tree...
