She found a patch behind the store
A forgotten bed of roots and clay
And though the world rushed past her door
She knelt to plant her dream each day
They laughedWhat grows in such cold land
But still she dug with stubborn grace
With every seed in her hand
She sowed belief in time and place
Her garden bloomed in silent fight
Beside the towers and city din
And those who stopped to see the light
Felt something stirring deep within
For what she grew was not just green
But rest in days too fast too wide
A whisper in the in-between
That life is more than just survive
