A Poem: I Planted A Seed

A Poem:  I Planted A Seed

 

I found it nestled between my rib cage

Vibrating with a frequency that spoke to the heavens

The harmonic ring, too high a frequency for earth bound souls

But I stopped,

and I listened,

and I knew what must be done

 

With courage steadying my hand

I reached in, and simply plucked it out

A little heart shaped pod of destiny

 

It sat in my cupped hands, quivering slightly

In sync with my beating heart

And so I pushed it deep into the earth

 

With the wound on my ribs still raw

And my heart completely committed

The dreams put down roots

 

I took the first step

 

I planted a seed
