A Seed

Any parents wish for their child to always be safe, happy, and healthy

A seed was planted deep under ground.

On an autumn night with stars all around.

A wish was given to this seed; be strong.

Stay warm and safe through winter's long.

Cherish this seed o' blanket of snow.

Sleep softly beneath, continue to grow.

Prepare for life, be pure inside.

Will to fight, challenge each tide.

Spring arrives, reach the sun.

Feel the heat, your world's begun.

A flower now, once a seed.

Determined to rise, thrive, and succeed.

Search for joy in each new day.

Create your soul, find your way.

A flower enriched, glorious and true.

Travel beyond what is old and new.

This flower sings so sweetly and bright.

With a touch of magic and sparks of light.

A hope eternal that love will stay.

Protect your heart in every way.

Impressive heartfelt poem. So much love and sincerity shine through in this poem. It has the perfect beat and rhythm as I read it.

Your poem will speak to all parents, who want the same joy and peace for their children. And, this is a great message to children, especially those about to leave home and take on the world. Nice piece!
