Like a young seed thirsting for rain,
I want to grow, and feel the same
In your vast world where love is born,
And good-bye is the painful thornLike flowers open their petals,
I embrace the sun’s bright signals
In your fields of fresh aroma,
Poison is the ultimate karmaCultivate, and I’ll blossom on earth
Shower your love, and I’ll find my worth
For I am your vine, you are my wall
Cling on as we learn to rise and fallLet me survive in this Cosmic Garden
Of wild orchids & dangers,
Of wild beasts & strangers.I will survive in this Cosmic Garden,
Our own blessing, our own curse
Our shelter, our universeHome sweet, Cosmic Garden

I stumbled across this poem while doing an assignment for school back when I was a teenager. I liked it then and it’s good to be able to reflect on it once more.
