Ancient gremlin
shady and established
in rich soil,
left uncut
grows and stalks—
high and low.
Hedge in, good one,
name it, know it,
help it,
love it
before it seeds another.

This seed poem, an almost-poem of sorts, is a result of randomly selecting a plant description from a printed seed catalog each day for 100 days and reusing only the words used to describe the plant.
