5 May: A dVerse Quadrille

AI art: map of a garden

The Garden

The garden is mapped,
and nature is undone.

Supplanted.
Keep this. Hmm. Not that.

Tug at the weeds, shift
the soil and sift the silt.

Winter’s rooted dark fades
into tulips and bleeding hearts,

as a skylark’s delicate song
unwraps a silken colour seed.
