Time Enough

day moved slow
as cow and ducks
listened to the grass grow
leaf and twig
where observation and imagination meet nature in poetry

While we assume that listening to the grass grow is a metaphor, it’s a fact that it’s possible to hear corn grow — and without much effort. We used to go into the fields when I was a kid just to listen. I’ve never heard grass grow, but maybe I’m not as good at listening as the cow and ducks.
