Forever Seeds
"While the earth remains,
Seed time and harvest". Bible
Although each one looks identical,
Some will suffer a different fate.
All were fertilized and freely watered;
But not all will participate in the harvest.
Not all will survive to feed the hungry.
Not every seed will become a plant.
Some never burst through the soil.
Not because they don't try their best;
Nor because they were destined to be less.
Some surface, but are flooded by rain.
Some are burned to death by the sun,
But the seed and harvest principle remains.
