seed

crocus in my backyard this morning

This is a good resurrection poem:

Seed by Luci Shaw

God dug his seed

into dry, dark earth

After a sprouting up

in hopeful birth

and healing bloom

and garland grace,

he buried it again

in a darker place.

Twice rudely planted seed,

root, rise in me

and grow your green again,

your fruited tree.

I hope you have a good Saturday.
