Impromptu Bloom

 
One day I found a large seed laying by the edge of the tarred two lane road
on my way to no particular destination; I enjoy driving to somewhere without
a map for it often adds mystery and adventure when life becomes too routine.
The seed was large enough and its contrasting coloration instantly caught my
eye and I pulled over to the side of its side of the road.
When I got home I planted the seed  hoping and somewhat excited to find out
what rewards it would yield!  After more than a year of everything I could think of
I kind of forgot all about the seed that produced nothing.


I think it was one morning for me, afternoon for her, I met the love of my life
although I did not know it yet.  After some flirting and foolish banter I invited her
home for a cup of tea.  To my delight, she agreed.
While I was boiling the water, she noticed the empty pot with soil and plant food
and inquired about it.  I told her it was just an old seed that probably was dead.
She took it and as soon as her delicate fingers touched the soil something began
to rise out of the soil!
She said she had a gift to help plants to grow but only when another kindred
Spirit who was gentle and sensitive started the process.  I was impressed and
Excited that her spirit caused this seed to produce life.

I realized she could not
Have done it without me…Wow!
 
I think this is going to be the beginning of a growing relationship.
