i am a sower planting seed, papyrus pamphlets cast in the wind,
along the wayside where stymied growth is perpetuated tonight;
prayer upon silent prayer, spoken in hallowed tones, quietly,
persistently as emerald shoots spring through miles of clay;
no grandiose, a seed tucked away under a bed of earth,
to which is sung a word, a lullaby, till sleeps the seed;
awakening bountiful growth, birthing it through life,
through a burden of dirt, mountain range of loam;
below to become beneath, where firmly rooted
stands a tree, bearing fruit, bearing seeds;
and the shower plucks them, plants them.
