| Fragile beauty from the richness of earth. |
Earth, Dirt, Dust
"When does earth
become dirt?"
The thought rinses
through my mind
as I shake
the lettuce dry.
That
which holds
and nourishes
and gives,
makes its way
down
into the drainage
of thought.
Kicked into the air
as we fly,
swirling in sorrow,
then settling.
Waiting.
Until its embrace is welcomed once again.

More solemn thoughts settle in, as we ease into Holy Week.
The above photo was taken during a farm trip last weekend with the Good Food Community, a local community-supported agriculture initiative we're fans of.
Such a big idea, and yet as simple as lying down on the earth. Thanks
