# Genuary2024_GrowASeed

# SeedfulGrowth

The prompt for **Genuary 2024 Day 26 is Grow a seed** and in the **SonicPi** composition, this is coded by growing the random seed number within each loop.

## Poem

```ocaml
Growing the Seeds
As the Sounds
Grow as They Feed
Feed on the Lines
That are Contained Inside
As the Seeds
Grow Round & Round
```
