Thanks its all good.

How about this.

Think of all the baby plants that sprout
from seeds' slumbering in soil,
the earth's womb.

Their lone limb reaches. An awkward listing grab at food .
the sun, the rain.
While roots wrap round fast to mother's breast
with primate tendril toes.
A sprout, pallid, weak and brittle, aspiring to greatness opens and unfolds, doubles and redoubles.
Fed by the rich pantry of death and decay absorbed by roots sucking earth's marrow.
That single weak stalk doubles and unfolds it's first leaf to catch the air and light
