This Spring day I collected promises of renewed life from ducks, geese, turkeys, and chickens.

I moistened the earth where kale, arugula, peas, spinach, and turnips were presenting first signs of life.

I separated and replanted the narcissus, onion, and garlic bulbs.

These simple acts were glorious reminders that immortality is inherent to the biological world. It resides in eggs, seeds, spores, nuts, roots, and bulbs.

Each triggers the continuous metamorphosis from potential to actuality and the return to potential.

Each connects known histories to future prospects that become known histories.

The only true death is extinction.
