The Seed

A seed of love planted in someone's heart, starts to grow.

 

A seed of love planted in the depth of my heart.

I prayed,

I hoped

it would flourish and grow.

The feeling it gave me was fuzzy and warm.

Emotions I've never imagined crowded my being,

overwhelming me with tears and joy.

I never wanted the seed to get tangled in weeds and die.

I wanted to feel the delicate seed grow,

and push through the surface of my heart.

I explored,

I matured,

I waited,

until my heart blossomed with love and so much more.

A beautiful and hopeful poem. Love is like a flower. Need to be treated with kindness and allow to grow. The description was very good and I like the ending to the excellent poem. Thank you.

Always nice to see your work and the growth that we have all witnessed with your writing. Like the seed, you water with love and we get to watch it flourish.

nice! I like the idea of seeds being planted to then flourish into love - like little seeds dotted around as moments build up!!
