Which one will you choose first?

Neither is wrong or right

Both will shape you

If the acorn is chosen first

Crack open

Pain and changes flicker

Like stars in a night sky

An agonizing venture

Wisdom

Leaf turning over to begin again

If the leaf is chosen first

The wind will gently carry

Across the sky

Enjoying life

Without a care in the world

The acorn may become lost or left behind

Hopes and dreams of the past buried

Stories continue on

Learning, living, and loving where we are meant to be

Seed to leaf

Birth to age

Life goes on
