Persistence

Last month—when I was subsumed in poetry—I came across this shrub in someone’s garden:



I stopped to take a picture of it because I was struck by how determined Nature is. I mean, whatever this plant is, it had clearly—literally—been pruned back to the bone. And yet, here it is, furiously sprouting leaves and new growth.

We should really think twice about messing with Nature.
