Yard to garden

Submitted by Benjamin Gorman on March 4, 2013

It takes many paces
and lots of grunting and sweating
for this particular alchemy

a transformation
whereby the merely functional
becomes transcendent

from pleasant green carpet
to abundant fecundity
in a sweep of seasons

on this side of the magic
the audience is skeptical
the payoff should be stupendous

but the gardener knows
it's more work than magic
or, the magic comes only after work.
