The Gardener

The gardener mixed the soil The gardener laid the seed The gardened carefully watched the seed sprout The gardener fed and watered the plant The gardener picked away the threatening weeds The gardener pruned the plant allowing its best parts to grow The gardener enjoys the plant's flower's scent The gardener admires the plant's beauty

The gardener goes away The plant's beauty fades The plant's scent sours The plant's branches overgrow The weeds overtake the plant The plant thirsts for water and nutrients

Why did the gardener leave? Without the gardener, the plant is lost The plant searches for guidance and love like the gardeners. No one can replace the plant's gardener.

Days in the Sun

My daddy and I spent days in the sun, Mostly I'd talk and he'd listen a ton, Day after day, the time that we spent, Our time together, and how much it meant.

All of the days, turned into years, But I'll always be, coming back here, With yellow flowers, in hand to brighten his days Hoping to feel his smile, through all the rays.

My daddy and I, and those days in the sun, I'd tell him my day, and that I miss him a ton, I'd polish the stone, tell him I'd be back soon, The weeds that grew nearby, I'd gather and prune.

I have nothing more, than those days in the sun, The stone angels nearby, missed not one, Of our meetings together, my daddy and I, And all but one, of our sweet goodbyes.
