Creating Something Else
Published 10/21/09 by DustinLeave a comment
Planting seeds is the easiest part.
April to June. The tiny sowing.
An act of directed impulse;
the desire for creation.
It's the watering, the cultivating,
the weeding, the clipping;
the labor of love is in the daily act
of choosing to feed,
of respecting the life of the seed that grows.
What wind and rain. What storm and frost.
What neglect and drought.
What hail and hoof
and blight and pest did not stop.
What Love of Sun and God continues to thrive
to unimagined heights
amidst the weeds and rocks.
Do not be wary as the seed one planted
becomes a life on its own
-amongst a wild nature
of uncontrollable urges and growth.
Trust the design.
Embrace the Harvest.
-Erika Cecilia Noguera
