From This Earth

From this earth, this dark soul 

leaching to the sea, biding 

in silence beneath the trees, 

and by my calloused hands, 

washed by sighs, fed on the 

drip, drip, drip of need, 

I have wrought a being 

that might yet prove fit to be with 

you.  Come, till the soil of these, 

my parched and stunted roots, 

and let us shoot into the  

green promise of tomorrow.
