In Perpetual Spring
By Amy Gerstler b. 1956 Amy Gerstler
Gardens are also good places
to sulk. You pass beds of
spiky voodoo lilies
and trip over the roots
of a sweet gum tree,
in search of medieval
plants whose leaves,
when they drop off
turn into birds
if they fall on land,
and colored carp if they
plop into water.
Suddenly the archetypal
human desire for peace
with every other species
wells up in you. The lion
and the lamb cuddling up.
The snake and the snail, kissing.
Even the prick of the thistle,
queen of the weeds, revives
your secret belief
in perpetual "spring",
your faith that for every hurt
there is a leaf to cure it.
Thanks

Out for the day caching with Jeditrekr on the Spanish Springs Trail. Most were easy finds but there were some that took that little bit longer. TFTC.
