I planted a feather

I planted a feather and a bird grew

                                   and flew to heights

                                                      inaccessible

I planted a curl and a girl grew

                                and touched the stars

                                                     unattainable

I planted a word and a poem grew

                            and shed pearls on a world

irredeemable
