Sea Green

Ephemera etc.

Another talk to a group of expectant faces - 16 people, putty in my hands. This is such a funny way to see people, all ages, keen, transformed into the little kids they once were, excited about rainwater tanks and planting days, itching to wander about the community garden and poke at plants and announce names triumphantly. The keen ones (is this like I was?? but now I am the teacher??) wander alongside me as I walk asking questions and really they are saying 'I like you, I trust you, lets share stuff' and I do and they smile and nod and suggest things and we together we are part of something. And this part of the job I like, this part I will miss.
