I’ve scattered these seeds
Sown them down in the damp ground
Will any awake?
I’ve scattered these seeds
Sown them down in the damp ground
Will any awake?
Whiley whiskers twitch
In the damp dawn woodland air
Tracks left in the mud
From this tiny seed
Grows food, shelter warmth and light
Patience rewarded
In this wilderness
Dormant seeds lie expectant
But will they flourish?
Leaves drop, seed scatters
Fruit falls and begins to rot
I too let it go
