My seed

by ogbuagu   Jul 26, 2011


I have a seed to plant
and plant i shall
but where shall i plant this seed of mine,in my head where ma experiences are all dark no light,violent and unforgiving?
or in my heart where heart break selfishness resides and have comfortably blossomed?
where where shall this seed of mine be grown
should i plant it in ma friends whose troubles i dare not share and life stories the same as mine?
i think my lover whoses bed and heart i share,but no not my lover because she needs a tress and she would suffocate my seed with tales of passion pain and despair.
i would plant my seed in my child whose soul is moist and fertile,whose dreams have never been dreamt yes i would plant my seed in my child knowing the afflictions that i bear and nuture her with the water of my words and the experience of my life that may bring light to her in this lost world so she can say when she is a tree that her fathers path and struggle s were concrete and dark
but yet he conjured light for the photosyntesis of her soul.
