choy's

[Guest guest]

If bok choy is large enough it will sprout a small

yellow bufd flower in the center that smells slightly

bitter, I've never seen it on the baby bok choi.

The seed is in bloom, will it meet an early doom

or survive in a tranquil sea?

Does it face an early end, will it find a real friend,

should it be called humanity?

Will creation of man bring death by his hand

or will life be his destiny?

The Seed - Rare earth
