so…B Garden Day. and it was glorious. I continued to clear and clean up. All the tomato cages are now stored in an orderly way. The one with the praying mantis egg case clearly marked with a strip of Toad Egg Cloth. cleared the watermelon vines, raked the pine needles with my fingers and emptied the full contents of a bucket of rain soaked potato soil into the space. When i emptied the wheel barrow FULL of rain water, this little SUN. Among all the other things that Emrie had played with, measuring spoons, an oven timer, potato masher and various cookie cutters. the SUN is actually a shower curtain hook that was part of a group of them, Sun Moon and Stars that Jenny had given me so so long ago for the Christmas that we agreed to only shop at the Dollar Store. it's stuck in a bamboo stick. I brought the cookie cutters up. Time that Emrie can learn. Weeded the Egyptian Walking Onions. Under the Daisy Shrubs where a whole community of those mushrooms has taken over. They rise up from underneath the partially decomposed cardboard.
Crow circled overhead, calling rhythmic patterns that i would repeat back. Over and over. Someday, It will light.
