I knew a faerie woman had been in my backyard as soon as the sprouts began to poke their heads out of the ground and sniff at the passing breeze. Over the next few days, stems shot up and leaves bridged the distance till the air was alive with a silent frenzy.
It was a rare sight to see the earth so in love that it couldn’t help itself but to grow and grow and grow.
I never met the woman, but I could imagine her behind my eyelids, ghost that she was.
And the garden flourished in her stead.
