The secret of a gardener

`









Your ruling thumb is green,
I grow effortlessly.

Selfless is time
allowing me to be nourished
by your delicate hands
and incomparable patience.

[Eyes blindfolded,
as petals burn].

Your ruling thumb is green,
from your governance-
I wilt and die.

    Love needs a gentle hand - more than water... Loved the metaphor you've applied here, my friend. Deep and meaningful poetry.
