In soil dark, a seed lies still,  

Its shell a cloak, its heart a thrill.  

Beneath the earth, it dreams to rise,  

And greet the world with verdant eyes.  

With gentle rain and Sun's warm kiss,  

It pushes forth, it can't resist.  

Through cracks in soil, it finds its way,  

To bask in light, to seize the day.  

Though small and frail, it bears within  

The strength to grow, the will to win.  

A lesson taught in humble deed,  

That from a seed, great forests feed.  

So let us learn from nature's art,  

The power held within the heart.  

Description:

The poem uses the growth of a seed into a plant as a metaphor for the potential within each individual to overcome obstacles and thrive. It communicates the message that even the smallest beginnings can lead to great achievements if you word hard with determination and resilience.
