  4. soil is a vital part of life. it grows. it reproduces. it also gives a home to many living creatures. without soil there would be no trees. without trees there would be less oxygen, and with less oxygen we as humans would struggle. where would we be without soil? perhaps nowhere. but aside from all the science and facts, what does soil mean to you? spiritually? do you care at all that its sitting all around you. sure it helps, but so what? either way its going to always be there, so might as well obtain some sort of opinion or interest. soil is life.

  6. Cold, dirty. My cheek ground against the gritty soil. I turned my head. My chin dug into the hard dirt. I could see the tips of black boots inches from my nose. A throaty chuckle sounded above me. It sounded far too malicious.

  7. I plunge my hand into the soil looking for whatever I can grasp before realizing I don’t like dirt. It was a worthless endeavor and I can now add this to my list of ever expanding regrets. Soil makes me want to think of other things, I thought of a tape worm. This has been terrible.

  10. The arrow flies from my bow, I can feel it fly past my arm. It hits the bird dead on. Of course it does! I’ve been doing this my whole life. The blood drips into the soil of the rich brown thick soil of the Earth where the bird landed. It stains a rock red.

  13. Soil. Comfort. This is what comes to my mind when I see the word soil. I remember all the times I spent in my grandmother’s garden as a kid. When I dug in the ground planting tulips in the spring just in time for Easter and my birthday. It’s one of my earliest memories and one of my fondest.

  17. He leaned down and pressed his hand into the soil. It was hard and very, very cold. Tremors ran through his weak body; he knew he could go no farther. Laying flat beneath a cold, yellow-grey sky, he let his eyes close at last. A harsh winter wind blew across the empty tundra and over his still form.

  18. its brown and it doesn’t taste good at any age. its not one of those things that improves over time. soil is often related to snails as they sludge through it. in my opinion, soil is a fairly shit version of mud.

  21. The wind picked up all at once, and the dark volcanic soil shifted in one violent movement. Beneath, now exposed to moonlight, glimmered thousands of rigid white things I had to take a moment to place: rows and rows of bones.

  22. the soil felt like ice under his fingernails. What brought him to this very moment? What took him to thinking it was ok to unbury his late friend? He knew his voice in his head told him to do it… but was he crazy enough to really do it? The voice said YES.

  23. Hohoho. Brown stuff that can miraculously turn white stuff into green plants.

  24. he soiled himself
    at the thought of death
    he knew he had no control
    and that alone was enough to break his nerves
    he tried to dissolve the thoughts
    but it was as if it was starring him in the face
    and forcing the urine to deepen the shade of denim upon him

  29. Things go into the soil to become part of everything and nothing, all at once. It’s a funny business, Living. We walk upon soil and then become a part of it. We look into the mirror and become the reflection.

  30. My favorite fertility, wraps me kindly in it’s gentle atmosphere. There’s nothing more comforting than the idea of someday returning to the warmths of a modest plot, to be once again ground amongst the holier company of dust and leaves.

  32. It was dirty full of worms beneath the green growing plants. Deep within lay decay and much to say the dead were there to stay. They rest forever only their bones and few remaining clothes. Maybe a wedding ring or two, some silver, and a view of one last moment within their coffin.

  33. The soil slid slowly, then gathered speed as the entire side of the mountain collapsed into the sea. Four days of rain had turned the mountainside to mud, and it could hold off gravity no longer.

  34. Country life depends on soil. When you live and work in the country, and the the soil is dry, nothing goes right out here. The crops don’t grow, which means less money. The hay don’t grow which means the cattle can’t be fed which again, means no money, or paying more to buy hay, or having to sell cattle.

  36. Soil can be fertile. A lot of climates have infertile soil. Spongebob soiled it. Children soil their pants often. Soiling things is bad. But fertile soil is good. What if I soil something but I apply nutrients and nurture? What if I ruin something in its best interest for the future? I could tear apart the world in hopes for the development of the plants. Maybe.

  38. its on the ground. A source for the life we have on earth, the plants and tree. Its also the helper of these trees that provide shelter and food for animals. Its brown, and grainy and has something so pure yet messy about it. yes soil.
