Seed of Hope

Deep in the earth, a tiny seed
Lies dormant, awaiting its chance to feed
On sunshine, water, nurturing care
To grow and bloom, its beauty to share

This seed of hope, so small and shy
Contains within it the power to thrive
With patience and love, it will unfold
And flourish into a vibrant whole

Though the journey may be long and hard
And obstacles may fill our path
We too carry within us a seed of hope
That germinates through faith and optimism's scope

So let us tend to this precious seed
With tenderness, love, and empathy
And give it all the water, sunshine, and air
To grow into a wondrous affair

For though the darkness may seem so bleak
And our hearts pounded sore and weak
We still have strength within us to cope
Thanks to the seed of hope, old as hope.
