Roots!

By John Tamakloe
Share this post:

In life everyone has 
His or her roots 
These define who 
And what we are, 
Where we come
From is determined 
By our roots!

Just like how


Roots hold a tree 
Firmly to the ground
Even so our human
Connections, relations etc
hold us together!

The stronger the roots
The firmer a tree stands
To withstand every storm 
That threatens to uproot
It. Such are our families!

 

Roots are not one
But many, each takes
And follows a direction
That it chooses 
But in the end they hold 
Together with other 
Roots the one tree 
In place. This is how a family 
Looks like.

 

Even though we
Are many, yet in Christ 
We are one! Unity in
diversity, this we see 
From nature. May we 
Learn from Nature!

 

The weaker a Root
The weaker the Tree! 
The more vulnerable it is
As it cannot stand 
Strong winds and storms 
Hence united we stand 
Divided we fall

 

We are Roots
Of one  tree, though 
Each root may take
Or follow a different path 
Or direction ; 
Yet it is a part of the
One large Tree. The Family

 

Roots are like
Our natural fingers, 

They are All not the same
Yet none can perform
Effectively without the 
Other. May we learn 
To respect and acknowledge 
The value and importance 
Of each Member of the family


To agree to disagree ,

Yet stay and be together 

Is the hallmark

Of mature persons ! Measure 

Your maturity by this ! That’s 

When you rejoice !
