Conditional love
The wave to the ant is a tsunami, the wave to the giant is a droplet, yet the wave to the crab is life. The breeze to the leaf is their turbulent tornado, the breeze to the great oak is barely a tremble, and still the breeze to the bird is everything. The avoidant to the attached is a chase, the avoidant to the avoidant is unseen, the avoidant to the understanding is just hurt. The blazing fire to the man is a devastation, the fire to the ocean is a warm breeze, and yet the fire to the ecosystem is a new birth. The ant does not love the wave, the giant does not notice the wave. The leaf does not love the breeze, the oak does not pay it mind. The attached does not love the avoidant, the avoidant does not see the avoidant. The man does not love the fire, the ocean is untouched by the fire. And still, the wave to the crab is what gives it life. The breeze to the bird is its every movement. The avoidant to the understanding is loved. The raging fire to the ecosystem is a rebirth. Everything has a place to be welcomed.
