Cheery Tomato
by Stacey LaMontagne

I was a little seed once.
He planted me in some
soft, cool dirt.
I was dry and small
until He watered me daily.
The warm sun exchanged
my impurity for fresh, clean air.
I began to change.

One day, I sprouted green leaves
and a tall stalk grew.
Leaves multiplied and
I bloomed tiny flowers.
Lovingly He gave me support
to help me grow without
wilting from the weight of
my new form.

Today I sprang into life
and there is fruit.
Finally I can give back
to the one who has given me life.
