Fig Tree Bloom

Ionah:part four ( Fig Tree Bloom ) It was just a fig tree touched by creations grace To shade and hide anothers face Keeping the scorching drying heat From scorching his tired and weary place. A worm it stirred beneath the soil Growing on roots like an oozing boil Taking the life sap of the tree Destroying the fruit as it grew and blossomed. Did this worm from a sea serpent come? Hidden in side his tattered clothes Bidding its time for a moment precise Killing the bloom from the inside. APMcintyre 2012.
