Life's Words

We plant a seed        
We moisten it with damp        
We nurture, we fertilize
And give loving care    

Preventing the weeds
From neglect isn't easy            
To flourish, the seed
Through drought, "needs" be shared
  
The seed of a poem  
Begun with a thought            
Watered and sprinkled
With rhythm and rhyme  
              
Fertilized with feelings            
From deepened emotions          
Unfinished, it's message
'Til read, in it's time
  
A smile seeds a friendship          
Shows genuine caring        
Feeding with kindness          
It deepens, it grows
    
Words speak of love        
A fine spray of real passion            
Imparting the needing      
Each other, seeds sow
  
Planting that seedling
In poem or life needs
A kissing of thought words
A caressing with touch

Prompting the growth
That lies dormant, still, resting
Allows for the blooming
From loving you much

Producing new seeds
To be reaped by another
Creating the images
A generation of new

When time, ours, has passed
Blooms wilted, plowed under
Remember us, our images,
That in "life words" are you.

Hey Wynter I sure like this ending!

"Producing new seeds
                 To be reaped by another
                 Creating the images
                 A generation of new

                 When time, ours, has passed
                 Blooms wilted, plowed under
                 Remember us, our images,
                 That in "life words" are you."

Great words for the special day...al things are definitely involved....goods work!

The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up
spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to
re-language historie
