The tomato seeds might represent the Japanese Americans. The speakers father in the first stanza says how the seeds will not grow where they are going, which could signify the hardships of the road ahead for the Japanese Americans. In the last stanza, the speaker mentions to Denise that when the first tomato ripens, she will miss her. This could represent how when the Japanese finally being to thrive after the hardship, the Americans would realize the mistake they have made.
