Blessed Be

Written for Lexi’s Poetry Challenge round 36.

Blessed be the mustard seed
faith’s reality
a tiny pit becomes a tree
in which love’s phoenix builds its nest.

Blessed be the sleeper
who awakened by dawn’s wind,
inhales the fragrance of God’s Glory
wafting from paradise.

Blessed be the seeker
who finds the Tree of Life
and shares its immortal fruit
with humanity.
