Seed of Life

The seed of life breaks forth 

With joy as it faces what comes

It doesn’t ask for anything more

Than the things that bring it life

When you see that tiny seed

And wonder what it brings forth

Cherish the gift that it brings us

Growing in the love we share

That tiny seed holds the key

Of life to us that can see it

Growing to give back to us

All that we need it to be.

The seed itself can be tiny

But brings all of us joy

Adding beauty to the earth

Or giving us food to eat

Take a seed in your hand

And know what it can bring 

Marvel at the gift of life

That a tiny seed can hold.
