Somewhere it lies hidden in the soil as a seed, while somewhere else it blooms and bears fruit as the branch of a tree.
This gentle couplet reflects on the mystery of divine presence and transformation in the journey of life. On one hand, existence is like a quiet seed buried in the dark soil, waiting patiently in modest obscurity; on the other, it bursts forth as a vibrant bough laden with sweet blossom and fruit. It tenderly reminds us that whether we are enduring a season of hidden stillness or celebrating a time of flourishing abundance, both are purposeful expressions of the very same spirit.
