PLANTING THOUGHTS (c) By Polly Guerin (inspired by Monet's Garden at the New York Botanical Garden May 17, 2012)

                                                                                                                                                                
As I  dig deeper, thoughts come seeping

While I’m watery, weeding, weeping

Like seeds the desires of the heart planted

Continual patient care, nurturing granted

Do not disturb their silent germination

Learn planting patience and creation

Like a gardener, a caretaker of life

Sunlight, a happy disposition suffice

Your desires will bear fruit in time

In orderly manner like nature recline

And worry not, how life will unfold

Plant positivity, be brave, be bold

Watch thoughts bud like a flower

Rain will come gladly, let it shower

Plant beds of wisdom, re-set goals

A gardener’s perennial is never sold

But determined, persistent to the end

All is well! Plant your dreams, my friend!
