Poem Meditation on Psalm 1

Since I haven't posted lately and I really want to post here at least twice within seven days, I will recycle something I wrote last week.

Parched ground,
Withered tree,
Water near,
How can it be?

Roots grow deep;
Water seeps.
Never fear
God is here.

Leaves do show;
Fruit will grow.
Dig in deep.
You will reap

Fruit that feeds,
Brings forth seed,
Leaves to heal:
Spirit's seal.
