God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass,
the herb yielding seed, and the fruit
tree yielding fruit after his kind,
whose seed is in itself,
upon the earth,” and it was so.
God created the seeds
He also created man
To man he gave wisdom
and knowledge
Man was made to have
dominion over the earth
Now it is up to Man,
with his god-given wisdom
to rule the earth.
The future is in your hands

Thank you
Thank you for the trophy. I will always cherish this award as the first recognition I have ever gotten for my poetry. I tell people I am not a poet. I also tell them that I am not a painter. All things are possible with Christ. My being able to apply paint for a living to new townhomes, and the writing of the poetic work show the poser of God's might.
Thank you agin. I will use the points you awarded me to run yet another contest. I hope you will enter my newest conest. -
What a wonderful job you did with this poem. Congratulations on your first trophy, well done. The future is in our hands, for sure. What we do with what God gave us.

well done with the seeds of life grows promises and knowledge through the roots of imperfections and idiocyncracies. one seed may be seem small to some but it has abundant production if the messages of thought are heard and spreads throughout the world "feeding" the minds and hearts of all. thank you for entering and many blessings always xxx
