My Chaste Eye Call me Worm Eye; Paschal Eye, Lenten eye, Crow eye, Crust eye, Sugar eye, Sap eye. All these names I am, full in a daylight sky. Make my wishes come true, bless this soft small garden in moonlight. I prepare the earth for your planting. Prepare yourself for change. Call me Gust Eye and Plough Eye. It's so worth seeing my Sap Eye bleed and worms rise range over warm soil, after snow melt and ice crust refrozen glints before it too, melts. Turn plough, bring up riches, bury weeds, You must, prepare my ground for my eye to relearn new beginnings, my Chaste soil sight dug fresh, this eye returned from hard dark starts to stretch.
