Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Recapitulation


I have made a garden with infinite care,
And, finished now, I stand surveying my work.
And I know that shortly, briefly,
These seeds will quicken and bloom
And fade and wither and come again
In other springs, and ever be
Poignant reminders of you.


And yet, I buried you over and again
In the soft rich earth beneath each tiny seed...
