seeds to life - our life

perhaps we all started off as trees
a seed dropped from the beak of a 
bird. our falling the beginning of 
our human existence. our branches 
we grow close to regardless of time
space or even species. we meet each 
as if we were once whole. plato had 
it wrong - we were not one being 
split in two - we were an entity of 
beauty that lived hundreds of years 
or only a season. regardless entwined
forever trying to reemerge whole

i miss when you write. having never
known i feel it ok to be part - a small
part of an existence that at one time
was whole
