is buried
leaves, dirt, rocks, sand - mess
And you believe, it's better that way:
part of it's worth is in the planning
the dig, the find
the raising up and glory of it
as it crests the edge of the earth and is lifted above
settled for a life of dirt?
settling in the dirt,
sifting through - down to a laden trunk's temporary bed
Seeking and found by the One that is sought.

Beauty from ashes... seeing the treasure and giving it its full value. I hope you'll visit my blog today - even though on the surface it's completely unrelated, I feel like the heart of why I wrote it was an attempt to do exactly what you describe so beautifully here.
Being one who loves to play in the dirt, I relate to this. Good food for thought. Thanks for sharing.
