Comment from Bill Schott
This is a nice metaphorical blank verse about a person being the seed of God's message of love and hope for the world. It is well put together and an enjoyable read.

Thanks Bill;)
Comment from Drew Delaney
As far as I can tell, this works for me. No rhymes but the 10 syllable count is there. I like the subject matter, the cadence and the metaphor - I am that seed. Well written!

I enjoyed reading your poem. It flowed perfectly. I enjoyed the message. We can plant seeds of faith in others, but we may never know it they grow. God does know.

Comment from Acquired Taste
Very uplifting poem reaffirming your unwavering faith.
I think your choice of the seedling photo is perfect and if only we were able to see the growth in people the way we do with the seedling.
We would know when they were in need of extra spiritual food!

I just love this poem and I don't think you could have chosen a more poignant photograph than the one you used. I've not tried a blank verse poem yet. Perhpas I will soon.

thanks for the great review. I took a class here on it. It was harder than I thought - no rhyme any where - internal, end, proximate, nothing. I do have a proximate end rhyme in needs/me but no one has said anything yet.

Comment from giovannimariatommaso
Well done and the message is brilliant, an age old message of the growth life pattern of a seed as applied to we who are the real seeds of life to carry on that life to the ends of the world inclusive of everyone.
The poem follows the form and the beat; it also reads well and makes understanding if the first 4 beats of each line are read down to the last line & restarted up above on the first with the last 4 beats of each sentence down to the last line. A fun poem.
I didn't see any spelling or grammatical errors.
