Better Soil

Not every seed — grows

Not every seed
grows
where it first lands.
Some spend years
beneath ground
too hard
to nourish them.
People often mistake this
for failure.
It isn't.
Environment
shapes possibility.
So does kindness.
So does patience.
The miracle
isn't that growth
takes time.
The miracle
is that life
keeps searching
for sunlight
even after
long winters.
Perhaps
we are built
the same way.
