- The garden
- Each spring the dark Nichol town dirt if filled with the promise of what earth can give back to you if you work the land plant the seeds pull the weeds My southern grandfather missed slavery by one generation his grandfather had been owned his father worked from dawn till dusk with the promise of cotton and little pay. so, this is what he believes in your hands in the cool dirt until the earth gives back to you everything you've asked of it. sweet peas and collards, green peppers and cukes lettuce and melon. berries and peaches and one day when I'm able my grandfather say I'm gonna figure out how to grow myself a pecan tree. god gives you what you need best not to ask for more than that. Hmph, my grandfather says. And goes back to working the land pulling from it everything we need and more than that.
- I picked this poem because I believe in grandpa growing the plants to provide for his family and I slightly agree with grandma because God Gives you what you need to plant that seed and watch it grow. He blesses our food when we pray, and it heals us.
