little seed

[puresweetlucy]

little seed
germinates on
one
single drop of rain

little shoots
for little roots
crack the dry and solid mud
The seedling grows, a stem and leaves
and finally
a tiny bud.

the bud, it opens
and the seed,
it has become
a tiny, tiny
little flower

apprehension
contracts the soil
begins to suck the flower dry
the petals, browning
the leaves are frowning

water, water, water
please
