Fay Slimm.

 

 

PLANNED.


Cold rain-bubbled a sole
blade of swaying grass shivers
before me with fibrous perfection.

Thistledown light it quietly
writhes with buoyant head high
this strenuous stalk defying the wet.

Where are your veins and
what holds your filmy life-force
together in delicate tendril-threads ?

When gossamer frame first
shaped you to face planet gales
who capped your capillary filaments ?

You dancing seedhead were
I believe planned by intelligence
only Heavenly inventions possess.

    Another fine write Fay. And trees are never 'only trees'. Each one is different, all shades of green, etc.

    THANKS FAY ~ I have researched PLANT BIOSYNTHESIS and my conclusions ~ from my research is that "THERE IS A GOD". By Photosynthesis CO2 & H2O are converted into Glucose C6H12O6 : which (with enzymes) can be converted into POLYMERS STARCH (for food) and CELLULOSE (for fibres). Seed dispersion ~ for propogation ~ is one of GOD's many Master Plans n the field of Plant Biochemistry ! Yours as always BRIAN 🧡
