    Very good wording in this, Michael..indeed the fruits of tomorrow, you said that so eloquently:)
    Too many children lose their lives due to many, many tragic causes. My heart grows heavy thinking about all the young lives, African Aids babies left to their own recourses, dying of starvation, the ones scattered across the globe who suffer from deseases and will die slow, painful deaths due to the fact they cannot pay a doctor. so much suffering, my friend...and where will it end?

    ((hugs)) xx

    Mr. Darcy! Wow! What clear (yet sad) picture you've drawn here. So few words and said so much! Can be interpreted in many ways! Wonderful!

    This has got to be the most unique poem Ive read in a long time.. honestly. What can I say... indeed this can be interpreted a few ways, as Sourav has stated.. which makes it even more unique..

    Great work! (;

    I get several possible meanings from the. The first is literal. Tender flowers, being pulled and choked by human hands leaving none for the world to enjoy. The other is that the tender blossoms represent the younger people being choked by society and their youth, thoughts, ideas (represent the fruits) are stolen today from the world.

    Beautiful poem, and although it is short, the meaning is clear and precise. It makes you think of what you can relate this to in all of life. Great work.=]

    A great writer can always explain what he/she feels with little words instead of droning on and on. You've done excatly that. Very beautiful, 5/5!
