Arab spring
Seditious seeds-
that
waiting seethes,
await awhile
for ripen time,
grow greener
and reach further up
than ill-timed bloom;
plow back injustice-
feed the fields-
a greater harvest
than a snatched
fruition ever yields.

Nice poem. I'd prefer "ripening time". I found the last 3 lines less than smooth, maybe you could lose "ever" from the last line.
