![]() HorticultureA Poem by Dreamer![]() style inspired by a local caribbean poet, Olive Senior![]() My gardening time may seem a bit unorthodox. I have the habit of meddling in my flower garden (though some call it a grave yard- I've never seen a grave yard produce life).
Now that is clarified for you I think I'll continue...
My gardening times only take place on the darkest of nights. When only half the moon is peeking from the sky. (I say only half because between you and I, that moon loves to highlight everybody's business. Laughing it up with that one they call Sun who claims that he sends his rays to warn us before hand.) Such a blasted lie Never saw one ray to this day ...Or maybe its true. Maybe he sent them as some joke while I was being lead up the garden path Everybody knows Walking up the path Your trusted leader makes sure you're blindfold
Anyway, I garden in the night. When I know for sure that wind has transformed. Trading in warm daytime fingers for cold stabbing needles. Guareenteed to knock the feelings right out of you.
No emotions While I pluck the weeds of broken and failed relationships. No emotions as I uproot that single rose (before the vines got too tangled) Between you and I...(I hate them bloodly plants) Always deceiving Always seducing Always making you see red Red love Red petals Red tears Red blood (and if you're anything like me, after seeing your red blood spilled because of the likes of him... well you'll be seeing RED RAGE). So when pinning, dont stick it too close to your heart, (just in case it might decide to stick back)
Enough talk. Back to my gardening Tilling the soil with my spade (but not of hearts) A spade of rejuvenation Preparing the way for my seeds of healing... © 2011 DreamerAuthor's Note
