Watching a plant grow....





Watching a plant grow;


Tending to it like a baby,giving it the best of food:




Foliars, fresh manure and silty earth, 


Protecting it from the sparrow and the crow


Being its friend, its protective hood 


The farmer takes care of it as if he himself gave it birth...


Watching a plant grow,


To be dazed at the sight of the first plumule,the first leaflet 

To feel wonder with its first flower


And to wish it was already tomorrow


To simply feel the joy of a well deserved harvest by sunset

After a hard day's work in the changing weather..
