Thank you for inviting me here @lonestarpoet. The poem cries out:
The fern pleas warning to the mothers’ cry,
listening when to open allows the love to survive;
when the call comes heralding then it’s time to rise.
Thank you for sharing a life lesson from Biology. The fern was planted and fed by the mother's care but one day must be independent. Just like the turtle that swims away from home.
Finally you remind us that strong roots create sweet fruits. The Oaks from the beginning of the poem come back awakened to bring fruits that set us free.
The poem says a lot for a few words.
This is what I get out of it. It is a law of nature to be free and independent but first we must be nurtured. This is human life as well. Sweet^^
Thank you so much for this sweet synopsis of this poem!
I'm glad that you liked what I wrote here and followed me to read it :)
Yes - nurture then live - know when to shine!
