Personification of January---Ground Dirt

I’m like the ground dirt The soil that holds life within Deep inside the heart of me Seeds lie quite dormant The seeds of plants, grass, and trees Waiting for warm times to come Russell Sivey Entrant into Nette Onclaud's "Personification of January" contest 12/29/2011

That dormancy will end in a few months from now. That will be shortly after the pitchers and catchers report to their facilities in Florida and Arizona. Good writing, Russell.
