life in death...
my godson’s father died recently, a man who lived off the land his entire life –
his legacy to mother earth populates acres upon acres of fruit trees …
he gardened as well, feeding his family from the land -
he lived true to his Taurus sun, an earth sign -
when he died in the northwest,
here in new england the ground is frozen because temps are seasonally cold …
on the back porches are pots stored with bulbs to be revived come spring …
the day after the mid-February funeral in the Pacific Northwest,
the bulbs here on my porch unbelievably showed awakening growth …
at first i thought my eyesight was fooling my brain whose logic was screaming
that it’s been wa-ay too cold here for new growth!!
but alas this is what my phone camera caught!
i sent this pic to my godson,
texting that maybe his dad had stopped by new england?
to which my godson replied as excited as i was astonished …
because look closely,
3 out of the 4 pots have bulbs growing despite these freezing temps --
pretty amazing to say the least ...

two weeks later and still way too early for New England,
an exquisite fragrance filled the sunroom
