The Bohemian plants lettuce to join the kale we both put in the ground a month ago. All greens will go to feed the friends and celebrating love and union with us on our wedding day.
Plants are being raised in rich soil boosted with spirulina. Growing and thriving, they’ll be ready for harvest 11/29.
It’s all bubbling up
fizzing air
lifting
tickling
effervescent levitation
the Bohemian’s parents arrive from Czech in nine days
we wed in twenty-four
I wake
wondering
if Jeb will ever
memorize
eight plus six
fourteen
he soon will be
and he won’t
care anymore
if I
watch him
attempt
skate board tricks
no more
hearing
“Mom! Ok, watch this one!”
right
now
I can stand
by the plumeria tree
observe
his goofy foot
push offs
and ramp jumps
while my head’s
half-way between
tomorrow’s oil change
and
tonight’s dinner
oh
the wake up call
from an eight year old
mom, watch this
