Your imagery is beautiful! I could relate to every well chosen word and thought, especially as I am waiting for my own seeds to sprout.

Just finished tending to my seedlings. Then sat down to read this poem. Tears came to my eyes as I remember cleaning up after my mother, very demented and lost, currently living with us. Thank you for connecting my gardening, which is a very real escape from caring for my elderly mother, which is a labor of love for what seems like a devotion for what is lost.
