A Gardeners Valentine

Please be my Valentine! 
I'm getting desperate now 
That you will never notice me 
Somewhere, sometime, somehow 

Even though I've tried 
To get some of your attention 
I'm nowhere on your radar 
I never seem to get a mention 

I'm feeling quite neglected
And I'm always overlooked 
I wish you would spend time with me 
Instead of that new book 

So in a last ditch effort 
I write you this poem in a card 
Please be my Valentine! 
Love from your overgrown yard
