Mystery
John McMeans
May 14, 2023
Our finely mixed soil slate holds hope
In the dark unseen of its peat
Womb. We look longingly at these
Cedar beams, this garden bed, and
Wonder whether seeds will wake from
Slumber.
John McMeans lives in Amarillo, Texas with his wife and young son. He received his BA in Geography and currently works for Refugee Language Project (refugeelanguage.org). His writing has appeared in a poetry anthology published by the High Plains Poetry Project.
