30 Poems, 30 Days: Garden Memory (Day 19)
Credit: Christy V. (March 9, 2020)
It seems like a distant memory, but it was a month ago
Walking through a botanical garden on a cloudy day
It seemed to be the start of Spring, which never happened
Or maybe it happened as I was hidden away
The garden seemed still as I expect the world to be now
Look up at the branches I see new life
For a moment, I forget the struggles on the ground
The hope of new beginnings seems gone, but it isn’t
They’ll come late to all of us when the time is ready
As this garden blooms a year around
