A Seed to be Planted

by John Ciardi

A good question is never answered.
It is not a bolt to be tightened into place
but a seed to be planted
and to bear more seed
toward the hope of greening
the landscape of idea.    

 

 

Note: Today is the birthday of the poet John Ciardi who was born on this day in 1916.
