Planted along the path of life as he strolled along
some to die, others to live on
the seeds of attitudes, feelings, and dark moods
none forgotten, each together fused

In his children some seeds have grown most strong
for generations come and gone
some saplings, others mighty oaks and pines
all from his own designs

For those who come after the watering continues
in colors of hate, in tones and hues
some escape to flower much improved
yet none left untouched, none unmoved

Seeds planted grow without remorse to become
whatever is contained among
the planter who placed the dirt
atop the seeds of hate and hurt
for generations to come
