The Tiny Seed Opened

The Tiny Seed Opened


Deep the ponderous silent beginning
Rumbled its struggle to
And break open once upon its lilting

And thought
It lifted high some resounding
Gathered itself by pulse climactic
Loosening
The swollen burst of its making

And deeper driven the slow light emancipating
Rising glory
The exulted splendour
Forth rushing spreads encompassing
In the eternal reaches
The heart beats deliverance
Sings joyous cries

With life eyes

“I am here !
“I have arrived !

The impassioned apex of praise
Fortissimo to the pinnacle creation
The tiny seed
Opened



Inspired by

Also Sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30 

( Eng Thus Spake  Zarathustra) is a tone poem by, Richard Strauss composed in 1896 and
inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche philosophical treatise of the same name.
