today.

today we took off our shoes.
the earth squished between our toes.
it was smudged on our faces,
and is still refusing to come out from underneath our fingernails.

today we dug.
deep.

and not so deep.

we watered.
tiny plants.
seeds.
and each other.

today didn't stop until the last piece of sun fell out of the sky.
we smelled of compost.
and chicken poo.

I wish more days were like today.
