The seeds of life, their lessons |

Beneath our covers fertile rest Are seeds that wait to grow at best Each planted by our hand of fate To be all that we love or hate Some will grow to give us trust To weigh the truth and wipe the dust Others they will raise their head Exposing all the things we dread Some will bloom to give us love To find our ponderings above Others grow as devil’s own To curse some times when we’re alone Some will be that Goose bump feel The inner joy to turn our wheel Others be our memories store To look back on forevermore Some will grow from in our eyes To give our vision such surprise Others pessimistic view To find the worst in what we do Life will test by casting seeds Throughout our given time and needs And as they grow we’ll need to find A balance which will help the mind For every seed’s a lesson’s start That shows us life and tests the heart To show us some of bad and good To give to us as teacher would So let us learn each lesson well Become our teacher’s tale to tell Of how a life can find a peace From fertile soil and life’s release |

Some will be that Goose bump feel The inner joy to turn our wheel Others be our memories store To look back on forevermore My favorite lines, but all your words reflect your deep ponderings well. Love, Margherita |
