Like a seed in the ground
a kernel hidden,
buried, but alive
waiting to burst forth
to expand, to grow, emerging,
to produce a harvest
gathered in its season
in a time unknown
A harvest, a jewel
a bit of wheat, a harvest
joy, awakening, revealed,
a unique creation
coming to the surface
rising on the breeze
held in a loving hand
a wonder to behold
