A Snapshot

A lemongrass blade
spears through the sunlight
down stabs into shadow
at the base of its fellows
taking bright green
into the heart of the darkness
of the soil
where things begin.

  2. Ah - the muse is still with you, bite-sized! :)
    Can I take a liberty (or inspiration) and turn it into a tanka? It does lend itself...
