Life in a seed

from such a plain simple seed
planted in rich moist earth
labelled, loved and watered
we wait to see its mighty worth

a tiny green shoot is first seen
winding its way to the light
as each leaf slowly unfurls
growth can be such a tough fight

with each day this shoot continues
to stretch up towards the sky
the red and pleasant flower
so elegant, tall and spry

then when the time feels right
intriguing things start to happen
all become a master piece
bursts of colour fills the glen


the wonder of life......!
