The Growing Seed !

Kingdom of God is like a man who cast seed,
Then night and day with it he sleeps and wakes,
As and when he waters it,water its need,
It springs up and grows, wonder it makes.

He does not know, how the earth bears fruit?
Just the blade, then the ear,then the full grain,
When the fruit is ripe, takes sickle to harvest,
Gathers into barn,the whole he can't explain.

When he scatters the seed its so dormant,
No one knows its hidden vitality,
Suddenly it grows and becomes buoyant,
In full green its growth shows up potentiality.

He who plants or he who waters is nothing,
Growth is God's doing and it is everything.
