Seeds are marvellous mini-miracles.
To look at them, one would never suspect
that inside each tiny package,
a seed,
dry and wrinkled,
some no bigger than a grain of sand,
Could contain the power of
Transformation!
If you didn't witness it with your own eyes
would you believe it at all?
To begin this transformation
the plant must first come
completely undone.
It drops this gift-wrapped,
blueprint of itself
to the ground
Where it must remain
buried deep
in the dark
earth
Until the light
calls it back
to life
Miracles occur in the most unlikely places.
~
There are more miracles
in a square yard
of earth
than in all the fables
of the world.
