The seeds that fail to form
Many are the seedlings
Few the ones to form
In the perfect timings
Where the heavens lawn
And the beauty is seen only
By angelic forms
And the sights move the gut
To tremble and to ball
And the subtle life so delicate
Though willed by earthly souls
Sometimes can never be in that living state
However they're hoped for start
And somewhere they are known by name
Somehow, in the dark
They become anew in time
To flower fresh in the sun
And scatter their loving petols
Gently from above
