Seeds......... Grow Once More



layer upon layer
last falls leaves
crisp, dried, seeds
reactive to spring rain
seeds of spring earnest to give life
push up deep most black earth

I can visualize them growing! Nice image!

(Did you mean moist instead of most in the last line?)

Oh, I really loved this one. Succinct, compressed. Said it perfectly.

I had to read this one twice... at first I thought is said; deep moist black earth - then I saw it was; deep most black earth. Your poetry is always amazing.

Lind I must tell the truth. I can't type worth a hill of beans, Yes I meant moist.
