“I'm soil. I'm mud.I'm a spring baby whose birthday isn't,cherry blossoms and blooming buds.It's the thawing earth.It's the mud before the grass really comes back.And I've been making this tea, Jujube, Goji berry, and Chrysanthemum.It's in my skin and in my bones, and I know winter just started.But it's not as cold as it used to be.It's not as cold and the cracks in my skin,aren't as dry, and it's sweet and floral and January,didn't feel at all like this last year.”
