Cultivate Your Garden 

Skulking about outside churches
pointing out irises to my son-- See?--
I imagine burrowing down and being in place,
moving soil around, saving annuals
over winter.  Friends say it's a weed
if it isn't where you want it. The question
is how to allow flourishing. Or rather,
the extent to which we exert will
versus a graceful abiding.
