Collins Response

Dig into a poem
As a farmer digs into soil
Cracking the tough surfaces
Pushing away rocks
Searching for the rich earth below


Deeper, deeper
Warm grows the soil
Moisture beginning to pervade
The land grows rich and brown
Like aged wood

Bountiful soil
Returning to Eden
The farmer stumbles upon something long lost
Something holy
