Seeds of hope
Apr. 19th, 2002 08:30 amI can't believe it. My terrarium was planted
in the little mason jar on Sunday with
marigold seeds. By Thursday evening, the first sprouts have already appeared. Terraria are like
microwaves--they cook everything much faster.
We're still some weeks from the really critical part, though--will an excess of that fertilizer soil in the bottom of the jar lead to early
nitrogen burn and snuffed out 'golds?
Last night I bought another jar--this time a little water jug with fountain spigot. Will it be a wildflower mix, or will I put in tropicals?
Such trivial decisions can make my world a better place.
I am amazed at how much poetry I can write when
I set aside anxiety about its quality, and just
let flow who I am, however silly that may be.
