I had many seeds from flowers from my home,
and one day I saw this empty meadow so alone.
I ran home and gathered the seeds for I just knew,
that meadow was of need of red yellows and blues.
People saw me out there just dancing around,
thought I was crazy they told others about town.
But in that dance I made that meadow mine in spirite and soul,
and on that very day many seeds I had sown.
A month passed and I saw a few green sprigs and stems,
I just knew they would dance on the breeze to such a lovely hymn.
Then low and behold when I stopped by in a few weeks would be,
their were cars and trucks stopped for the loveliest view they had ever seen.
You see this land has many poweres sometimes it just takes one,
to show they care and have some fun.
Like a child so free giving unconditional love,
and knowing of what beauty is born fro the land the rain and the sun.

Sow Seeds of Positive Energy
If we take time to sow and care for plants of beauty in our world - we would all be better off. Learning to paint the world with colourful plants and not caring for the grey status-quo. Thank you for entering my friend - your pen is so colourful x -
Beautiful and so inpiring and incouraging. I agree with you completly that we should teach our children the importance of nature and caring for it.
Nature can teach so manythings including love for it is so pure and clean. The wish we all have but to lazy to take action to do is to protect nature.
Thank you for this poem, hope whoever reads it learns something about nature's importance.
