WE are going out to fix the garden
dormant ground for years
overgrown weed trees &
shrubs now tree tall
it is a miracle anything survived
in thick Texas soil
parched & cracked in summer’s
ninety degrees & climbing
our sweat pours out

You painted a realistic image of a Texas garden .. fixable I think even in the heat. Nice write.

The ground is like that here in Southern Nevada, too. I could see this. Well described.
