Dad's Hope for a Seed

by Mylah Malana   Aug 6, 2009


When I was a little kid,
You have compared me to a small seed
Planted in a good soil, I will grow
Like a beautiful flower I will glow

I clearly recall when you have said
"Life is tough and sometimes complicated
Face it with strength but don't ever forget
failure will come, prepare to get hurt.."

"Life is not even perfect don't assume to be
Always choose what is right not what's the best to see
You may fail twice and cry a million times
That's the spice of life, you'll learn it in time.."

"Different people will be a big part of your journey
Some may mold, some may judge your personality
Whether they like you or not, treat them with respect
You can't please everybody, dont ever expect.."

"Share what you have but never hope in return
In giving your best be ready to endure some pain
It's only through pain that you will learn
Don't treat it a failure but a lesson to gain.."

You even said I can possibly win
Or reach even further than others have been
But I must not forget where I began
From a tiny seed, my beauty will also be gone..#
