The Seed
Beckett Gilmore
The Philadelphia School; Philadelphia, PA
The seed
Has so much potential
And never knows it
Until it gets planted
It grows all seasons
Nights and days
It grows through the soil
It bursts through the soil
Like a firecracker
Bursting with color
Later on
It has a bud
Buds open up
To the sun and rain
And sun and rain
It opens up and seeds fall
Out of the bud that opened
And the cycle restarts
It’s called the circle of life.
