Seeds that twist and seeds that twirl,
Seeds with wings which spin and whirl;
Seeds that float on thistledown,
Seeds in coats of glossy brown.
Seeds that bursts with popping sounds
From their pods to reach the ground;
Seeds with hooks that clutch and cling:
Seeds I plant for flowers next Spring.
Seeds that float on streams and ponds,
Seeds on rivers drift along;
Seeds in fruit, some sour, some sweet,
Seeds that birds and beasts can eat!
These many seeds are then passed on,
They fall, they grow when rained upon.
They make their way into the earth,
Then sometime soon they’re giving birth.
