Persephon(Eerie)

Today  
your shell was planted  
under topsoil  
surrounded by florals  
every color of spring  
 
I thought of Persephone  
descending  
into a season of darkness    
 
In that moment  
I realized the metaphor  
of your moniker—  
the strangeness it projected  
 
It is only in murkiness—  
a lack of illumination    
that seeds escape  
the confines of their husks    
 
stretching through the dark   
toward a season of florescence
