Transplant

            Transplant

In the ashes prepare the ground
Push the shovel down with my weight
Scoop out the dirt, repeat
Earth ready to receive

Work with the soil
Prepare the roots
Planting beauty in the debris
For the future what will be

Sprinkle with water
Baptizing new life
What was dead
To live again
