A Psalm and poem about sin, regret, pain, healing, and redemption.
Roses in the Darkling psalter have to do with pride and regret.
Look, I know this is sorta vague, but your notes about gardening reminded me of "pawing under the ground under the black roses" bit from Psalm 2.
Thank you Andy—this was very beautiful. I really like the "flown things" image and the movement toward the return, the rehabilitated loves and the sense that stillness can be where we find peace rather than emptiness.
