one leaf will not warm a tree
one grain of sand will not hold the ocean
one seed will not plant a garden
one word cannot heal what’s broken.
all great things that hold great strength
are many little things in sync
your hardships now may overwhelm
but you are many things, as well.
you are all branches in the trees
you are the surface of the seas
you are endless fields of green
and you can heal what’s broken.
as all things small can grow such strength
those that are heavy will weather and change
you may not move a mountain today
but with each storm, it will erode.
that is the balance
