Here I ask the seeds
to push past mud
to present hope
watching how answers
in every fresh year
lie about
this yearning for mottled
softness to appear
softness to appear
under trees
Note: I liked the idea of using "past," "present," "lie" etc. as seeds that could be read in more than one way.
Pic: Our tea garden/my happy place. I have the remnants of my birthday flowers... but also a late amaryllis, and some early cyclamen, bougainvillea, begonias, hyacinths, and crocuses coming up!

This is such a happy place. Enjoy.
Is that space inside or out?
Nice wordplay
Thank you, Gillian and StephLove!
StephLove, it's a bit of both--it's a narrow South-facing strip with a window wall and no heating that was intended to collect passive solar heat.
