Rainer Maria Rilke on May 7, 2024

Translated from German to English by Guntram Deichsel

Just like the last green in a colour pot

So are these leaves, withered and wrecked

Behind the flower umbels, which reflect

A hue of blue only, more they do not.

Reflections are tear-stained, inaccurate,

As if they were about to cease,

And like old blue notepaper sheets

They wear some yellow, grey and violet,

Washed-out like on a children’s apron,

Outworn and now no more in use:

We contemplate a small life’s short duration.

But suddenly some new blue seemingly is seen

In just one umbel, and we muse

Over a moving blue delighting in the green.

Amending the soil when you plant is not necessarily helpful. In fact, it can create a thing we call “the bathtub effect,” where the hole you dug is filled with amendments such as compost and peat that are lighter than your existing soil, causing water to ... by Natalie Carmolli
