Growing
closeness to life
and change

Acceptance.
that plans and intentions
can go astray.
It’s the way of life.

Knowing
that we are a part
of something
much bigger
than we can ever be.

Observing
change
accepting
I am too.

Working with
Seeing — adapting
-change.

The growing ground
sits on soil
that was left
by glaciers.

So many stones.
rising
as soon
as I dig the ground.

Ground
and grinding
stones cleared
keep rising through
clay
emerging.

The terroir
of this
soil
grows.
