Seeds

A blowing wind ~ in November's chill Through leafless trees ~ atop a hill Falling seeds ~ adrift in air Blowing Wildly ~ far and near Under leaves ~ and under stone Lost in cover ~ left alone A lucky seed ~ If rain begins Where it falls ~ from blowing winds The raindrop falls ~ it's what it takes Melted down ~ by chance it flakes Roots in mud ~ it came to be A springtime blossom ~ a newborn tree Of years in growth ~ it now stands tall Dropping seeds ~ in time of fall Blown in wild ~ hidden in weeds A forest grows ~ from wind blown seeds The Raindrop Poetry Contest Sponsored by Craig Cornish 11/20/2018
