A Strange Musing

A Strange Musing

A Poem by

A very beautiful sight caught my eye.
airborne dandelion seeds floating by.

Then, a very curious thought came to mind,
Are we too plants; but; of a different kind,

seeded by some strange seed unknown,
that brings life to flesh, blood and bone,

thus making us blossom like a flower,
and breaking free at life's closing hour,

like seeds from a matured pod, it flies,
invisible to the human eyes,

as we end in ashes or a tomb,
to fertile lands, a baby in a womb?

invisible to the human eyes, '

This encapsulates it all. Gosh... I really like your rhyming. It is clever - not forced. This truly goes full circle but allows the mind to follow the final thought.

like the cosmic seeding of our earth, mature or well developed rhyme scheme
the never ending awe of mother nature splendid.Top shelf writing, keep on.
