I Am But a Seed, an original poem

in #poetry6 years ago (edited)

Aimless, waltzing on wind
I am but a seed
Waiting to begin

Grassy expanse beneath
the heartbeat wings
Carrying me

"Let me go, I say"
right here is the
Perfect place

I am but a seed
inside me there
Are plenty

Enough for the world
slowly but surely
I unfold

Behold

I am but a seed
of kindness,
congeniality

Bloom where I am planted
suddenly beauty, joy
a field enchanted

Though I am but one,
spread me like a smile
Good work is never done


I am infinitely inspired by wildflowers. They are at times ethereal and graceful but also wild and unruly. Sometimes, they are showy and colorful, others are rife with thorns and devoid of petals entirely.

Regardless of their appearance, they are a wild natural resource we will never tame.

Long live the power of the seed.

Seeds are everything
little carriers of life
the start of a thoughts
the begin of a dream
even the tallest tree
all from a seed

💙 Thank you, my friend.

This made me think of the river meadows we used to walk in- like walking through snowdrifts of seeds some days... and the otherdays like being caught inside a rainbow when all of the wildflowers bloomed. Wild and untameable at heart and so so beautiful. Gorgeous words. Xx

I am transported by your comment. ✨

So great a poem

Though I am but one,
spread me like a smile
Good work is never done

Yes! Beauty really does inspire and flowers are something special. Their energy, and the energy of seeds in general, is one of nature's great magic!

Yes! I am always inspired by nature. Not only is it incredible, it’s completely accessible. All we need to do is ask, listen, and learn.

Nice poem dear looks like that you like poem a lot @ameliabartlett

That is a very though provoking poem, amazing things can grow from a tiny seed, and they never give any indication what will emerge until you nurture them into growth.
