Read the poem below, describing a gardener's early morning routine.
Before sunrise,
I kneel to the beds
and listen.
The soil makes no speech,
but it holds yesterday's rain
like a secret.
I pull weeds—
thin arguments—
and set them aside.
Only then do I water,
a slow applause
for what stayed.
How does the poem's step-by-step structure affect the portrayal of gardening?
