The tree of My life

My life is like a tree
I couldn’t withstand any weather
Without every parts of me;
As I am nothing without them
The very root of my life is
HIS Divine Grace;
The Lord God created me
In HIS very own unique likeness
I am so blessed to be given
A very loving strong trunk;
My family who stood by me
In every moment of my life
We shared on quite a journey together
They filled me with different emotions;
Near or far, their presence prove I was cared for
My circle of friends is my heartwood – always there
I met a lot of people along my journey
They seem to come and go but the memories’;
My mind may forget but the heart will never be
They’re my sapwood, always good to remember
Every day of my life is a growing season
All of my experiences – good or bad;
It is what makes me grow larger, like a Cambium
It molds me to the person who I will become
Life is a roller-coaster ride – exciting indeed
Yet I have all my fears and my own nemesis
But I always find abode to my Bark;
My faith keeps me moving and so much alive
The world may always change
Like the green leaves may turn yellow and dry;
Too many things happened already
But there are more things yet to be unfold
I am me and I will live
For all the seasons, for whatever reasons;
One day soon, my leaves will fall and die, maybe forgotten
But the entire journey of growth will always be my crowning glory
