seed time bloom




“Of wandering forever and the earth again . . . of seed-time, bloom, and the mellow-dropping harvest,” wrote North Carolina novelist Thomas Wolfe in “Of Time and the River.” 

And this is the seed time, when some of the plants around my little spot on the planet---common milkweed, cattail, sow thistle, honey vine (also a milkweed)---wait for a change in the weather, a flow of highs and lows. It’s their time to inherit the wind, dispersing their seeds to parts unknown.

Bon Voyage!
