Jose Radin Llorca Garduque Poet Rhyme

94 My 21st Leaf

94.

My 21st Leaf



Picked thee from root stock

Like a mini rock

That's rough and dusty

Brown, pungeant, spicy

Wew! It's “ginger” leaf!



Peasant Garduque

No other than me

Planted by my hands

Arancillo lands

A crop squatter too



First day of last year

I planted it there

The last time I saw

Only few leaves grow

One Twenty-Six Twelve



Carved fish pond paddy

Western side levee

Inside a plant box

Black, loamy soil stocks

Weeds and dirt surround



It's first time to see

Leaves of crop by me

First time this year

Visit fish pond near

First time write so late!
