Seed . . .

. . . is where the whole thing starts
(and sometimes where it ends)
A spark must first be struck
Before a flame can flash and bend,
It may come mysteriously at times,
Or the source may be readily known,
In either case it's not within my control,
And if not quickly captured, by wind will be blown . . .

. . . and maybe lost forever

Completed . . .

. . . the composition


How will we be remembered?
Will our names live on?
Will the seeds that we sowed
Reap the glorious fruit we intended?

Adulatory panegyrics
Vituperary insolence
Commendatory highly glowing complements
Enthusiastic lionizing
Discourteous ill-manneredness
Impertinence and disrespect

It’s so funny how interpretations are made
When the color’s transformed by each factor
In every foundation that’s laid

Why would I ask more?
Why even ask at all?
Self-indulgence?
One higher purpose
I had in mind

All the years
All the times
All events that have all transpired now
Seem impotent
At the least, weakened
Things that we fought for so long ago


Insolence

Insolent Music . . .


Adulatory panegyrics
Vituperary insolence
Commendatory highly glowing compilments
Enthusiastic lionizing
Discourteous ill-manneredness
Impertinence and disrespect
How will we be remembered?

Reap the glorious fruit we intended?

Seeds . . .


(from http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/seeds)
“Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.”
― Robert Louis Stevenson

“Cry. Forgive. Learn. Move on. Let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness.”
― Steve Maraboli

“You’re frustrated because you keep waiting for the blooming of flowers of which you have yet to sow the seeds.”
― Steve Maraboli

“Those candle flames were like the lives of men. So fragile. So deadly. Left alone, they lit and warmed. Let run rampant, they would destroy the very things they were meant to illuminate. Embryonic bonfires, each bearing a seed of destruction so potent it could tumble cities and dash kings to their knees.”
― Brandon Sanderson

“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”
― Anonymous, Holy Bible: King James Version

“It always amazes me to look at the little, wrinkled brown seeds and think of the rainbows in 'em," said Captain Jim. "When I ponder on them seeds I don't find it nowise hard to believe that we've got souls that'll live in other worlds. You couldn't hardly believe there was life in them tiny things, some no bigger than grains of dust, let alone colour and scent, if you hadn't seen the miracle, could you?”
― L.M. Montgomery, Anne's House of Dreams

Spook. . .


. . . Handy

(from http://spookhandy.com/wp/biography/)
". . . Spook Handy was No Musical Genius As a Kid ~ He played no instrument, owned no records, and didn’t even have a radio until he was in high school. In fact, he didn’t make the first cut when he tried out for Glee Club in 5th grade.

But he Had a Dream ~ His love for music dates back to his first time watching the Beatles perform on TV. That day a seed was planted – a vision, a possibility of still being a fun loving person when he grew up. And little was anyone to know that one day that seed would sprout.

And The Dream Grew ~ It happened on a stiflingly humid New Jersey morning the summer after graduating Rutgers University (Phi Beta Kappa) with a major in Math and Business. Spook had been offered several lucrative jobs in the actuarial field. He had been groomed for this career by his parents and teachers because he was good at math as a child. He had three job interviews lined up for the day. But…

Spook Always Carried with him a Lust for Living “Outside the Box” ~ His “what if” and “why not” questions raised many eyebrows. His unorthodox religious perspectives got him kicked out of Catholic school after 1st grade. And somewhere in the back of his mind he never gave up on the dream he had when he first saw the Beatles. So, on that fateful morning as he stood in the mirror hopelessly trying to tie his tie, a sudden and unforgiving truth overwhelmed him. The world of convention was not his fate. Sure, math came easy. But his lessons were to be learned through his heart, not his mind. That day he gave his suit and tie to the local thrift shop, bought a used Yahama guitar for $50 and set out to follow his heart’s dream. . ."
