Weeds & Seeds

Careful where you step

A bloom appears in a crack between forward and back
Clumsy feet dance from yellow growth to work retreat
Punched and stomped root will grow strong and deep
Once a small seed now a full grown weed

Cry at babe’s birth and watch from the nurture grow
Gifts of love and care feed very slow hate and hope
Each of these are learned with mental path
A child is much like a weed until it breathes it last

What door today have you passed in search of truth
Open-ended questions mixed with your Vermouth
In step with the times you pass correct opportunity
Stomp the weed, poison the growth what is it you seek

Kick the child he is just a problem beneath your feet
Staggered fast seeking only to learn what rod holds you fast
Please echoes in your ear, no time to watch the play or wipe the tear
Twenty-five near the end of stomp fear love captures lost time

A bloom appears between forward and back
Clumsy feet walk up right in a padded street
Guided by strong fingers moved with little feet
Once a small seed is much more than a baby weed
