Seed of Faith

A tiny seed born of need Planted deep within the soil of my heart. Will it not depart? This seed of faith Laid deep; Solitary. It’s sheath decays, Lying prey to all that prowls without its beckon; Death to reckon. This seed of faith; It’s treasures now lay bare, Deep below; Darkness surrounds; All hope is lost; This tiny seed broken, Laying bare the promises within. With hope yet abandoned, Evidence appears, Though barely visible. Out of death, New life; It’s journey to begin; Delicate. It’s purpose to fulfill. Faith not forsaken Begins its way; To unfold, through darkness, it’s promises within.
