This blog post is about our surprise when we looked out this week and found a multi-head sunflower plant growing within a foot of our bird-feeder.

This blog post is a tale of a dreaded gardening job that turned out to be a truly positive experience. This was mostly due to a fearless leader with a strong back, a way with a shovel, and the ability to motivate.

In honour of the 1st day of Spring 2015, I am posting a poem I wrote in 2002 while learning to write poetry with Tom Torrance. The Promise is my variation on the Sestina form, written about the changes taking place underneath the ground in the garden, during the transition between the seasons. I hope you enjoy it!
