Oh Sower Virginia Salter Oh, Sower, sow your seed intent upon good fruit and I’ll prepare the soil. Seek the fertile, seek the tilled, seek to reconcile the stony heart. Sow in love, sow in faith, sow with hope of harvest. Let Me provide the growth through the tests that life can bring. Let not the cares of the world, delight in riches, desire for other things, be thorns that keep you from your planting, from your hoping, from your living in faith revealed. Instead, move forward, as living water, upon the soil finding its way through, around, the rocky crags, jagged stones, mire of bogs, and waned desire. © July 16, 2000 |

Lovely poem ...I think the stony heart must be gone after this wonderful run through the cycles of life .....there's always sunshine after rain.....good work Virginia! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
