I the Gardener

'I The Gardener', is a book of poems by Brick Casey. These poems tell the story of a gardener, (Adam), who gives a narrative of his life, prior to being given his help meet, (Eve). His journeys, his assignment and his life's story are told, however, at this period of his life, he has no name other than "I." His hope is to do his best with what the Earth may yield, and his philosophy is simple; "Til the land and harvest the fruits of his labor," for which he has been commissioned to do so by 'The Owner' of the garden. This is his pre-Genesis story.
