Where the Spirit Lives1989

Reverend Buckley:
Kathleen, believe me, I do understand the frustrations you feel. At first, well, the past seems almost insurmountable doesn't it? You know, I think that's why I took up gardening. These are all wildflowers, all local. Magazines have come to take photographs, yes.

Kathleen:
Yes, they're lovely...

Reverend Buckley:
Of course there - there nothing but weeds. Out there in the wild they grow in repugnant profusion. But here, in the confines of a carefully tended garden, well, you can see how beautifully they grow! Of course they don't transplant easily. They take more time, patience and work than domestic flowers. I've found, after I gather them, that I must first scrape every trace of the old soil from their roots and plant them in fertile, new earth. Water them well, weed them and cut them back often or they will return to the wild.

Kathleen:
Reverend Buckley... I'm talking about children, thinking, feeling creatures.

Reverend Buckley:
I assure you Kathleen, I assure you, so am I.
