Good luck with your contest entry! Your poem reminds me of the parable of the planting of the seeds, some grew, some fell on fallow ground. Yes, liken seeds to words forming a poem. Loved it, XXK.

    Thank you for comparing my poem to a Biblical parable! And for the generous rating. A writer?s mind is full of seeds. Some bloom into works of art- some don?t. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Hi June. I love melyuki. Her photographs are astounding and she dabbles in art as well as she did in this instance. This looks like a good entry for the contest. It is almost like a haiku. That third line is definitely an aha moment. Maybe a Senyru. But definitely a good 5-7-5. Well done. Good luck in the contest. Thank you for sharing

I like your theme of scattered seeds being blown about and then becoming ideas that germinate into poems. How clever and creative of you to think such a thought. Well done and all the best!! Melissa

A perfect combo of poem and artwork.
I truly like your metaphor describing how poems are birthed. I never thought of the writing process that way. Rod

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem. For a poet to have seeds blowing in the wind is like ideas flying around in our minds until we find something that inspires enough to start writing a poem.
