A Blade of Grass

It grows from a seed
from the fertile ground
slowly and surely it comes
little by little it's found

It can cover the field
all coloured in green
it's watered by the rain
so it's growth can be seen

This all begins with little
just a short blade
no matter times it's cut
it will never fade

A small piece of grass
it's indeed a wonder
to continually grow
always and for ever

I agree with John-- what a clear revelation of the seeds of Faith that are planted in us by God. Between the 3 of us we should publish a Christian Poetry collection :)
