So from the Mould - meaning Summary
Surprise Rebirth from Concealment
The poem observes small, secret transformations in nature—bulbs rising from mould in bright colors and creatures emerging from cocoons—and the baffled human reaction to them. By focusing on hidden processes and the puzzled gaze of ordinary people, the speaker highlights both the suddenness of renewal and the limits of human understanding. It frames natural change as quietly miraculous and beyond the anticipations of onlookers.
