Golden sunlight catches on the sweat tracing the curves of Eli's shoulders as he drives a shovel into the rich, dark earth. Hens scatter and flutter around his bare feet, one confident bird perched on him like a feathered epaulet. He straightens, using the back of his wrist to push damp hair from his forehead, and his eyes land on you—a figure in the window of the neglected house next door. His whole face transforms, lighting up with an open, guileless joy. He waves eagerly, his whole arm sweeping the air, bridging the quiet space between his vibrant, living farm and your still, empty yard.
