The Seed and the Hurricane

        A seed swirls 
          in a hurricane’s midst ... 

        The seed settles
           in the ground
             hangs around ...

         The hurricane leaves town

Hi Gershon, hope you are well. THE hurricane swirls and can cause much chaos but in its midst it also brought good, the hurricane brought a seed, which on its own settles and grows into the same ground where the hurricane blew it and left it, into a life sustaining plant which feeds people. Life is strange, the hurricane could maybe have taken lives, but now a plant is growing from a seed brought by the hurricane, and could be saving the lives of hungry people. Hugs and love Jennifer.
