Seeds of the Mnd

Words are like seeds sown in the mind
Scattered in a fertile field
Some unrefined, some nonaligned
But all will root and will yield.

Weather blooms are flower or weed
Depends on chance and surround
I've seem the best die in seed
And some surprise and astound.

Each of us is blessed in a way
For there are no two the same.
And depending on the word play
Non have the very same aim.

And though words are seed for our needs
Our needs go beyond this ply
We seem to be objects of deeds
Subject to a constant why.

Why is a word of magic power
Forever and ever in flower.

Thus becomes the birthing of the why nots.  Wonderful verse from you and so full of wisdom and beauty.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.

"I've seem the best die in seed

what a cool write this is Sy ...
so much truth and wisdom wrapped up in your gift of rhyme...
me thinks ya had some of that wise-poets rice for breakfast ...
with some perfect pondering pudding and
a side of excellece eggs
and of course a mug of way cool cappachino    
later-love-when-ya-rhyme-divine-gator
me

I looked into the sky for my anthem
The words and music came through
But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen
Looking into you

The wisdom in your words really caught my attention. Especially the lines...
"each of us blessed in a way, for there are no two the same"

Each of us as are like seeds planted, then bloom to flowers. All are special and have a purpose. And thus, the reason why.
Great write by you.

Ah Sy....some of the loveliest blooms come not just from wonderfully cultivated ground, but from the crevices of a rock...

to me, it always says..."I shall survive and strive..."

a small bump then, my friend, back up to the light...
