As Morning Approached

As morning approached,
I walked out to my garden
Circling it slowly
Letting the morning's hand
Lead me as if blind
To a corner
Unseen
Untouched
And I was there for one alive moment,
And could draw near to the ground
Asking
To dig in it a broad and deep furrow
To water
And plant in it
Hope
