Gardening Advice from a Slab

From the sidewalks of Saint Paul:


This particular sidewalk poem, seen next door to Connie's Creamy Cone on Dale Avenue, reads:

Advice for Gardeners

Accept brevity.
Celebrate decay.
Emancipate failed growth, hope
it'll just keep living. Mulch
near odd places.
Quit raking.
Sleep.
Tend unlimited variegated words.
Xerox your zucchini.

 Good advice.
