Nature's Quiet Gifts

The Gift of Life








She found you hiding in a shriveled leaf
quaking.
Tender fingers coaxed you to be brave.
Tenderly she placed you 
amongst the softest down.


 
The beginning of life
miracle incubating in a shell
dancing through the warmed soil.



 
Nature's seamstress wove
through the silent night,
stitch upon stitch
threading a brooch
of crystal pearls.



Where do you tread
 with your velvet padded feet?






Roses Crimson with
morning dew
melting
through crystallized velvet.
