in March, we built it.
Douglas Fir, organic soil
we placed it. waited.
in April, snow hit.
the harshest frost recorded
so late in the spring.
in May, leaves blossomed
flaunting for the cold world
their defiance.
in June, flowers bloomed
as pretty as peonies,
protecting their roots
in July, i dug
searching for gold in soft soil
and finding these gems
A lovely chronicle!
