Spiritual Body from Earthly Seed
Seeds do not come alive,
Unless they have died first;
What you plant will arrive,
After the blooms have burst.
Whether it might be wheat,
Or maybe of some corn,
Just seed under your feet,
Until it has been born.
It does not have a form,
Expected of the plant;
But as it does get warm,
It starts to gallivant.
God gives to what it needs,
Forming so it will sprout;
No longer are they seeds,
As they start to grow out.
Not all flesh is the same,
Different size and shape;
As the bodies proclaim,
If it is man or ape.
This body is a seed,
For to nurture and grow;
Once in Heaven to need,
After death God will sow.
