From Seed to Rose

Impregnate my mind and soul with thoughts of growth

Plant the foundation of our future with seeds of hope, strength, and trust

Hydrate my roots with love, support, and patience

Welcome my sprouts with the hugs of a million mothers

Open my buds with the warmth of a thousand hugs

Forgive the time lapse from seed to rose

Accept my blossomed into thy glorious garden 

Enlighten my roses with scriptures of confidence, pride, and self-love

Care for my body and soul, removing dead leaves of my past 

Free my subconscious, detaching my withered petals 

Cease wincing, endearing my thorns 

Nurture our love, flourish our garden of gods
