Homegrown crops.

I do agree, the garden holds,
great tasks for more devoted sort,
but there's a task amongst them all,
that I most favour to resort.

Those moments in the potting shed,
when hiding from a bursting cloud,
allows a chance to place a seed,
with hopefulness they'll soon be proud.

There's magic in such early sights,
as ruffled soil, by hunting shoots,
while in each pot, beneath the green,
there's magic working through the roots.

But best of all I like to stand,
and see but not the growing land.
