Sowing Cycle
Little by little, the seeds go.
They catch the wind and fly away.
They find another place to stay.
They take root and begin to grow.
As time goes on, they start to show
the kind of care the plants will need.
They have caretakers who take heed.
The stems become sturdy and tall.
Flowers bloom, shrivel and then fall.
Pods break open and seeds are freed.
This poem is written in the Spanish form espinela.
