The Garden
An Allegorical Poem by Nina Simperi
The Garden
by Nina Simperi
My garden taught me
that seeds
take their time to germinate.
This year
plants are popping up
that I sowed last year
and the year before.
Because nothing came up
I thought the seeds weren’t viable.
Luckily I was wrong.
They just needed
more time.

Beautiful Nina! I love how nature, the moon and the sun, obey their own rhythm! We are human and perfectly, imperfect. Thank you for tending our garden of knowledge, for the reminder is clear: there is a deeper Rhythm to be acknowledged. Many Blessings. ✨🌝🍀🌚✨
