When a thing is wick

Laura and I saw Secret Garden tonight it struck me in ways it hadn’t before. I really appreciated how broken some of the characters were, like Mary, more than I had previously understood. I also loved the ideas in the song Wick.

When a thing is wick, it has a way of knowing
When it’s safe to grow again, you will see
When there’s sun and water sweet enough to feed it
It will climb up through the earth a pale new green

Wick from Secret Garden

Wick made me think of our family. I’m trying to give it the sun and water to feed it because I believe it is wick but only time will tell for sure.
