Under blue skies we put a few broccoli and spinach seedlings in the dirt today while listening to the dog, the crow, and the peepers .
the god of dirt
The god of dirt
came up to me many times and said
so many wise and delectable things;
I lay on the grass listening to
his dog voice,
crow voice,
frog voice;
now he said,
and now,
and never once mentioned forever.
— Mary Oliver, from “One or Two Things”
