People?

The deeper you push our bulbs

The taller our daffodils rise

    A poignant write Andrew.
    Bit of a different angle on this - do you know (part of a song or hymn I think):
    'He that is down need fear no fall;
    He that is low [need fear] no pride'

    Just, WOW! (In a good way)

    cannot wait to read more.
    Thank you for sharing.

    Short and punchy with a big big message.
    Let us hope we all grow taller post virus.

    In my early life working for a firm of electrical consultants I was admonished for referring to the object that gives out light as a bulb - it's a lamp I was firmly told - bulbs are what you plant in the ground. Not sure that such definitions apply any longer - must google it. And a super couplet Andrew.
