Is it Possible

Is it possible
That I could be so excited
Over a stem so small
I can hardly see that it is
Green

I wondered, yet I trusted,
That the seeds
No bigger than tiny flakes
Tucked in the brown fertile soil
Would grow

And though I can take no
More credit than
Giving them a home
And keeping them wet
I had almost given up
But

As of this morning
There are seven little sprouts

It's hard to imagine
They will grow so big
Enough to carry heavy fruits
Yet

I can see them now
My sweet tomatoes
Orange, red, plump
Tasty
