A dimes worth of something

“I payed a dime for a package of seeds;
The clerk tossed them out with a flip.
‘We have them assorted to every man’s needs.’
He said with a smile on his lip.
‘Pansies, poppies, asters, peas,
Ten cents a package, now pick as you please.’
Now seeds are just dimes to a man in a store,
And dimes are the things he needs,
And I’ve been to buy them in stores before
And thought them merely as seeds,
But it flashed through my mind as I took them this time,
‘You’ve purchased a miracle here for a dime.’
You’ve a dimes worth of power, which no man can create.
You’ve a dimes worth of life in your hands.
You’ve a dimes worth of mystery, destiny, fate,
Which the wisest cannot understand.
In this bright little package – now isn’t that odd?
You’ve a dimes worth of something known only to God.”
