Awash in gratitude


It’s curious: 
That spot in our garden has been empty: 
Just  bark for five years now. 
But suddenly this spring 
 A foxglove forest has sprung up: 
Some white, some pink, some purple — 
So many stalks, with broad leaves at their base, 
Where nothing grew before. 
Though some would claim they’re weeds,
 I find myself 
Awash in gratitude.
