Global to local
There's something deep inside us which influences our demeanour
Even when the world turns black
It keeps us fresh and greener
Just like a tree tht withstands
All the dust and dirt and heat
This 'something'
Keeps us strong on our feet
It keeps us real and raw
Like we would be initially
But it also lets us grow
Like we would love to be
I call them my roots
Locally strengthening
And letting globally expand
Though deep in the ocean
But a dune on the sand
Without roots
What is our then to now and now to then
My past to present
And present to when
My here to there
And there to thus
Or local to global
Say, I must
