to plant

last - next

to plant

to feel the dirt between your fingers

cool, smooth, earth

to smell it

to see the seed in your hand before you place it in the soil

to cover it gently, sprinkle with water

stand back and admire this miraculous recipe

to go back in the house and wash the dirt from your hands

And to feel as if you've done something meaningful, or perhaps just been a part of something that is pure and true

for the first time in your life

to plant

last - next
