The Seed
© 2010, Joan Burch
Long ago and far away a seed was sown.
Now that seed is grown – today.
Its' species revealed. Its' color it wields.
No longer unknown. The seed is its' own.
A stem sprung forth, without support. Branched out its' hands.
Unto the land and to touch the sky.
[Bridge]
Through wind and rain. Through night and day.
The seed saw the ray. The stem grew its' way.
And so the seed, a source of life,
If scattered down,
on fertile ground, will grow again.
[Bridge] Repeat Verse 1.
