A seed in spring

Through lifeless winter, under layers of snow
A seed lay curled in, feeling cold, alone
But come spring, and the sun's golden light
Stirred something in its heart deep inside

Soon, seeking its sun, the soul broke free
Tore through the earth with effortless ease
As its eyes opened to a bright blue sky
Its heart put forth green shoots of joy

Now basking in the sun's boundless warmth
It embraces the world with open arms
A soul at peace wants nothing, it shares
Every flower it springs, every fruit it bears

Oh, the magic of love, pure and true
That bathes you in light, but asks nothing of you
It thaws a frozen heart, opens a tender soul
To become a joyous part of the eternal whole
