As someone who still tends the plants around our property (which can seem overwhelming in spring) , I relate to this poem, Frank, and appreciate the detail and tacit love of plants in it. And, yes, though echoes or reminders of them, the poetry still summons their beauty. Reading this I think of Fern Hill by Thomas and On His Blindness by Milton. -Glen
