The Tiny Seed
The tiny seed,
knows not of its power,
that sleeps within.
Fertile ground,
its nurturing sound,
a home the tiny seed has found.
Rainy love,
from skies above,
drenches the seed,
shaping its need.
Buds sprout,
happily spring out,
a labour of love.
Shoots gaze,
to the blue yonder with maze,
dreaming of it unfazed.
The tree rises,
step by step
up and up.
The power of seed,
now,
this tree holds.
A story of faith,
the tiny seed unfolds.
