The poem is sensual, a celebration of the intertwined cycles of nature and human intimacy, where the “season” of ripening marks both a natural progression and a profoundly personal experience, in which body, land, and eroticism are inseparably connected.

Re: Big Sis Sam,

Every single word, their nuances - like loneliness and aloneness …. do not escape your notice and I feel my writing ✍️ so satisfactory. My sincerest gratitude ma’am.🩸

"In my garden the bamboos arch over patch of grass, river stones." caught my eye as well. Plus I loved Jasmine in it too isimce iit s the name of our respective granddaughters. I like the explanation of loneliness and aloneness. It puts great credence in understanding the poem. Well done! It is such a marvelous poem. I liked how it got my mind thinking deeply.
