Some of Gregory Zeorlin’s poems are ten words long and fit on a tiny piece of watercolor paper. That page of words and another with an image fit in a lidded tin he calls a “Ten Word Tin.” The tin is just smaller than a cell phone but it doesn't make ring tones, offer texting, twitter, or play music. The tin never needs charging although it might recharge you. This “Ten Word Tin” could start a face-to-face conversation.
This tin is titled “Three Seeds.” Some people we know always seem to have these seeds in their hands. They are ready to share their faith, hope, and love to help others grow. The tools they use to prepare the soil are as unique as they are. Each has a talent to make something grow within their families, friends and communities. The seeds they carry sprout during all seasons of life.
What do you do with this tin? Give one to the person you know who holds those three seeds. Give one to someone who holds no seeds but seeks to grow them. A "Ten Word Tin" goes anywhere you imagine.
