Garden
You are a body that grows flowers.
A sacred garden.
Your vulnerability paints kindness
And gentleness.
You smell of charity; desires to only
Regal the earth beauty till you wither.
You, be nourished with the tears of the rain!
And rely upon the unfolding of more blooms!
No. Do no let anyone ravish you.
Ask first.
Are you committed to sit with me
Through all the seasons?
In the meantime, be the most charitable
Garden for everyone to behold.
Be kind and gentle. Be beautiful!
It will be a flowery death.
