A farmer knows


A farmer knows how life grows
By Bianca Merkley

 Before rising
 A baby seed nestle in soil
 Nourished with water and gentle rays
 Seeing harsh, forgotten, thick barren ground
 Some think it will never bloom
 “Let’s pluck it out” they say
 After a short time, the farmer sees that
 Nothing appears to be growing underneath
 The seed is bad
 It can’t be growing
 But the farmer waits
 Day by day
 Until the soil breaks
 The seed sprouts
 Green shines
 The farmer knows
That change takes time
 Trust the soil, the seed, the light
 Have faith that all things
 Will work out just right

I  like this poem because I think that there are times when we just have to give people time. 

Con amor,
Vero
