Where is the Future

Where is the future?
Within the flower or within the roots?
The flower makes the seeds
The roots from the depths raise the flower
What is all the fuss about it
Surely there is a future in seeds
As they spread out
Each sprout will grow its roots
Plenty of roots
Beside that the flower is nice
Has color and smells
Take the flower
But the stem banded and broke
All seeds are gone.
