Fresh Earth

Mix the sand and mulch add aeration and fertilizer Dig a small hole drop in a seed and water Hopefully it will grow Into the beauty I desire Time patience and lots of water Makes the plants grow tall and strong

The title caught my eye. I used to do a bit of gardening, but that's been abandoned along with my writing. Reading this made me smile and remember the joy of having a green thumb. Thanks for welcoming me and for reading my poem, I'm glad I was able to stir your thoughts with my words.
