Seeds Of Wonderment Poem by Edmund V. Strolis
Seeds Of Wonderment
She will always wash her tiny feet in a pail by the door
Crystal waters instantly turn to muddy chocolate swirls
A bucket of thrilling delight from the wells icey surprise
Contrasting with her hot sweaty mess of tangled wild hair
What a day of planting and singing with mother dear
Of earthworms and roly poly bugs in tickled palms
The fresh new earth, surrendering to the trowel
Mother- daughter kneeling, celebrating with the sun
Careful to mind the stone that marks the old cat's sleep
A prayer of life and joy is held lightly in their happy hands
Dreams of future sunflowers someday swaying slowly
Seeds for wonderment, brilliant colors tracing fence posts
Indoors the chores of dishes washed, with tiny hands drying
Outdoor fun is flower planting as chubby fingers pat the ground
Lemonade well earned will top their ice filled glasses
Dreams of tomorrow's bliss will fill their peaceful nights
A joy to read, great imagery, love and bonding through the wonderment of seeds, lovely piece Edmund!
