This print features an original poem written by farmette founder Loren Profit Smith:
"There are certain species
of wildflowers
that only bloom
after a forest fire:
all that death and ash,
the burning,
opens up a space
for the sun to reach in
where it never could before.
And in the charred earth
those seeds crack open,
they unfurl, they grow,
they lift up their faces
and soak in the light. "
Alongside the poem is an illustration of Baker's Globe Mallow, one of the wildflowers by which the poem was inspired.
