Three Seeds

Trust

Deep down inside,

encased and protected,

three sweet seeds,

each with a quality

to nourish the soul.

Listening.

Listen deeply

beneath the words

as a story unfolds.

I hear you.

And I have a voice.

Seeing.

See deeply.

Prise open the layers;

a prickled exterior

cannot protect from the pain.

I see you.

And I am here.

Trusting.

Trust deeply

despite doubts

that threaten equilibrium.

I trust you.

And I am worthy.
