just a tiny seed
a pine has grown even here
on these barren rocks
if we really endure, love
who can keep us from meeting?

Poetry is:
Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

Aloha with warmest regards, Cheryl Stewart Koomoa

Love does grow in some strange places...
and I'm thinking that these rocks
will accept the seed's roots...

CSKpoet,
from tiny beginnings do mighty trees grow, as from the seeds of your poerty mighty ideas grow.
Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Love will grow anywhere it is nurtured. This is lovely.

I enjoyed your Tanka ... one of my favorite forms

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

CSKpoet - love your write, hope you don't mind my humble addition...

just a tiny seed
a pine has grown even here
on these barren rocks
if we really endure, love
who can keep us from meeting?

"warm sun does temper
a seed growning even here
roots take shape in hardness
enduring, nuturing love
meeting together even here..."

Love can grow anywhere. Then, there is nothing that can keep you from meeting.
