Ode to My Sprout June 2009 The Phantom It feels like just yesterday you were a mere seed. Bathing in the waters provided. You split- Then one day came back to me as a blooming tree. Millimeters to centimeter, Inches to feet, One day you'll get me so baked; I will drop to my knees. For right now you're my little one. Caring for you; as I do my, other shrub. Just six days old and yet you're so big. Emulating all those before you; Like you have their spirits within, Can't wait for week two to begin!
