Frozen Seeds.

Spread the love

I just thought of writing a poem and wrote the following. Then I thought I will write an introduction and blog post. I wrote some then I said, C’Mon man don’t do this. Because that blog post I wrote was filled with profanity. There are people in this world who thinks they are the best, you know what, they will learn that life is not what they think it is. Someone once asked me when I said, You will learn. “What will I learn?” here is the answer. You will learn that love and care is not something that will come to you easily. A dedicated lover will never leave or can never leave. All you see as friends, family are all reasons to reach that love. They will not last longer than they intended to stay with you. As for the person who truly love and care about you, it is up to you to decide how long that person should stay. I didn’t say that at that time as I know my anger may take what I may say as a curse for that someone. I can never, ever curse that person. But unfortunately that person chose the path that painfully will teach that person the lesson.
  The above said thoughts kinda triggered this poem. It was so quickly written and I am very busy with some things, I just was not able to go through the poem a second time. My critics, kill me if you want to for any errors I made.

Frozen Seeds.

Buried in the forces of winter so brutal,
You all sleep under the comfort of freeze.
Freeze by the will of nature brought,
And through lands and seas in north, spread.

Remember the beginning of colder months,
When the first leaf through the light cold breeze floated,
And upon the green grass fallen helplessly.
Oh’ the tree in pride at the dead lost leaf, looked.

Then one by one seeds by many means taken,
Some by birds, some by people, many just fell,
And through fires, rains and winds far away went,
Life in a shell kept, in forced sleep.

Are you all dreaming to see the sunlight?
Are you all dreaming to see the blinking stars?
Are you all dreaming to soak in rains of spring?
Are you all dreaming to dance in the summer warmth?

With new leaves, flowers giving sweet honey and fruit,
Are you all dreaming to leave a mark of your own in this world?
Land is old, the air will be new, the winds will come,
With songs sung by birds in far away lands.

What lessons one can learn though not seen,
Thinking about a seed, deep buried,
Though in wonder one can still smile,
As life is same for all creations one know.

  1. i love the earthen feel. though this is also ethereal somehow. it reminds me of how lately i keep forgetting what season it is, it doesn’t feel like winter… everything is so beautiful anyway and i am always dreaming, it sounds like you are too.

    your grammar/writing is odd, but not off. i like it, it sounds like more, it’s unformulaic and maybe some people see errors in it but i just see difference… the good kind.

  2. @nine0five – Thank you for the insightful comment. Yes I agree the way I use English is a lot different than most people use. I hope you understand English is not my mother tongue. That’s not an excuse in using bad language. I just don’t trying to follow the grammar rules in my poetry as I just look if I conveyed the meaning or not and I follow a rhythm usually a tune. So the normal metrical rhythm found in English verse is absent. Most people who read my writing with those ideas in mind will say. You are not a poet at all. Well I don’t blame them at all. I just smile at them. Anyway you are a very smart girl who see “the difference…the good kind” than killing me with criticism. 

  3. I love how you give feelings to seedlings and respect their lifeforms. I also love how you sum their fears and joys up into this poem. It is indeed a great write for something that is “very quickly written”. Definitely a very refreshing topic, and one that reaches the ears of Mother Nature pleasantly…
