Climb the ladder
Fall to the bottom
Leaves falling
Like it’s autumn
Start as a seed
It will grow
Next to others
Row by row
Thriving on
The light of the sun
They grow tall
One by one
Before they die
They drop a seed
In a place
That meets every need
Like a seed
I was born
But in a place
That was forlorn
There is fire
And people yell
Lost in a place
Some call hell
My roots were weak
Could barely stand
The desert is bare
Hot dry sand
Continuously looking
For an oasis
But only mirages
Form the basis
Going to die
Getting hotter
That’s when you find
The patch of water
The medicine penetrates
All the cells
Listen closely
No more yells
Who Is James?
