The Roots of Life Bind

The many roots of life bind us.

🌱🌱🌱

Haiku 1 – Physical Roots

Roots shatter cement

Tiny shoots split cement

Sprouting in dim corners

🌿

Haiku 2 – Emotional Roots

Tangled roots still breathe

Memories peek through the soil

Feelings buried deep

🌿

Haiku 3 – Ancestral Roots

Roots of stories lost

Grandpa’s heart in a tree knot

Hidden love now seen

🌿

Haiku 4 – Technological/Network Roots

Vines below now speak

Data crawling like fungus

Unseen links hold life

🌿

Haiku 5 – Cosmic/Metaphorical Roots

Roots try to grasp stars

They tangle with lost time

Small vines scale the world

🌿

Haiku 6 – Uprooted/Breaking Free of Roots

Roots pulled up now float

Moving now to fertile soil

Regrowing with space
