Seed Planted in the Sand

Sometimes a seed is planted 
That just quietly grows 
Through the fiber of your being 
In ways that no one knows. 
\Ever there, it thrives then fails 
Lies dormant, then bursts forth 
Renewed again, in hope sustained 
Unawareness, clouding up its source. 
\Watered by memories long thought lost 
Structured to ever prevail 
Sustaining flowers in rare moments come
To bless you on the trail. 
\You planted that seed when you showed you cared 
One day when we walked on the sand. 
You cautioned me when we came to the jetty 
You smiled and you took my hand. 
\I send to you the flowers blooming now 
Within my soul - watered by tears 
May the petals ever line your path 
For the way you quieted my fears.
