I'm planning a shower for my sister, and I also decided to use the seed idea but couldn't find a poem. So, I wrote one. I'm no professional, this is my first attempt a poetry but it's the best I have and you are welcome to it if you would like to use it.

The Tiny Seed
Each day God sprinkles a million seeds into his garden of life.
Some will land in weeds and clay, but most in the soil of a loving husband and wife.
God will give the tiny seed most of what it needs to grow.
But the rest must come from the soil, and the soil is us you know?
So if you are lucky enough to receive a tiny seed from above,
Nurture it with kindness, faith, happiness and love.
Then, not long before you know it your seed will begin to sprout.
And a strong and beautiful blossom will soon find it's way out!

I put this on one side of a bussiness card and on the other side I wrote: Please take this home with you and plant it. Then every time you look at it's beautiful flower. Say a little thank you for "The Tiny Seed" that God has given Jennifer and Larry. Then I laminated the cards like bookmarks and tied them to the favor. I'm no Wordsworth but I hope it helps. At the very least maybe it will inspire some ideas for you. Good Luck!
