Fo-Ti
Sure we’d lost her
last winter,
this medicinal Chinese
plant a friend
for seventeen years,
in a pot cut back
to a dead-looking shred
We moved and fed her
provided a trellis to climb
Fo-Ti gone wild
now we scramble
to contain her
Fo-Ti

Seeing a plant grow so wild after looking completely dead gives a lot of hope, Didi. It shows that life holds onto its strength deep inside, even when the winter is very harsh. It is a beautiful sign for the household.
