Seeds of Life

The miraculous unfolding of seeds full of life and unique potential

Seeds of Life - A Poem by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


Seeds of life, cocooned in embryo;

In fluid, water, fur-lined pods and air-tight shells;

Micro-bodies pre-designed to be a macro-whole;

Living beings, alive, with their own inner soul.


As in Nature, we are seeds continually growing;

In need of nurture, nourishment and knowing;

As we journey through life, gently unfolding;

Realising there are no ends, only beginnings.


Seeds are hardy, blueprints of intention;

Made to disperse, absorb and grow to full fruition;

Beautiful in design, form, function and perfection;

Unique with inner wisdom gleaned by sensory perception.


Seeds of life, follow their path or dreaming;

Guided by intuition, feeling, love and meaning;

Attributes gifted to us since the very beginning;

As conscious souls, all we ever need can be found within.
