MEDITATIONS UPON A SEED
MEDITATIONS UPON A SEED
by Rev. Dr. Larry Delano Coleman
01/02/17
So much is buried inside of a single seed. It dwarfs the imagination.
So many bio-algorithms lay within one that none can pretend to know:
From whence, or what, whither or thither, such complexity has come hither.
But one seed of any type: apple, grape, peach, pear, coconut, wheat or grass.
One. Just one seed. Packs life, perpetuity, possibility, ingenuity, superfluity, and gratuity.
Meditate with me upon just one seed. Any seed. Then let us marvel at ourselves in their mirror.
