Just like fertilizing a garden -
     You get what you put into life.

Politics…
Fertilizing corruption
With the reseeding
Of lies
Upon dreams
That grow fallow
Upon dreams
That grow bare

The Devil’s apostles with shovel and hoe
Plant their crop of death before Winter’s snow
Fertilizing with bullets row upon rows
A perfect preview of Hell I suppose...

Always meeting death with clean honesty
Fertilizing the fallen with holy hollow
Give up your guns and lines in the sand
Take these drums, remember well
We extend from ourselves
What we see from inside...

How I spend me time
And labored, night and day
Weeding, fertilizing
Sorting heather, from the hay
Breaking soil wit me plow
Greeting daybreak with me pen
Then capture morning light
As I write with Rose again...

In a meadow of death a rose, 
our remains shed skin quietly;
Thorns fall out as we decompose,
A bit of you and some of me;
Feeding the soil triumphantly,
reviving a bloom of romance;
Caught the kiss of a honeybee,
fertilizing spring’s winsome chance....

with tender hands and a green thumb
you plant the many seeds of love
fertilizing the rich black soil
an act of love at which you toil

putting my heart in indirect sun
watering daily what we've begun
from deep inside it begins to bloom
a fragrant flower with deep, deep roots...

Haunted, passion lovers lonely starlight, cinema across thoughts memory water falls among 
sight, emotion nightmare carries soul, wish within every eye lash, to form the heart once more, 
lasting darkness from sun to moon wanting spoiling flesh, fertilizing soil, feeding nature to life

My cucumber needed hydrocarbon 
So, I thought to pee in my garden 
Thought my cucumber would grow 
But what did I know... 
My cucumber began to harden 

My tomatoes were as hard as a rock, true 
But I noticed they turned a dark blue 
When my pee hit their stems 
It ruined my gems 
Instead of peeing, I should have went poo- eww!...

Charity counts,
God pronounced,
It's divine,
God defined-
Who to give and whom to give,
Charity is beauty like a flower,
Bridging haves and have nots,
Charity is priority,
When begins at home,
Charity is purity,
Cleansing poverty,
The giver has a guarantee from God,
Charity is fertilizing to grow more,
CSR is charity but not a business variety!

(CSR-Corporate social responsibity)...

FUSION

Breathtaking brook braving brazen bruises became broken
Entered estuary emanating exuberance
Reopened rosary resonated rhapsodic raga
Together these tides tried to tackle tortuous terrains
Flowed far fathoms freely fertilizing fallow frontiers!

Give me a garden and a shed full of sweet cat
Some seeds for lilies, marigolds, and petals so fat.
I do not mind the tiny mice, or an occasional rat.
But do not expect me to put out a welcome mat.

I like planting and fertilizing, I like growing things.
Seeing what my muse puts in my mind with her sassy cute zing.
I do not need a lover, a boyfriend, or any weird flings.
I keep myself occupied with my gardens and faeries each spring....

No I'm not a vacuum
I actually like dirt and grime
So if your looking for me
This is what you'll find

With rakes and shovels
Designing gardens and beds
Packing it firmly
Or fertilizing with worms instead

I can grow a fancy of flowers
Maybe veggies for a meatless sight
Trees overflowing with fruit
Vines and shrubs for one's delight

If you need something grown
Just give me a ring
I'll slap on my boots and gloves
I can make your dirt sing...
