How Does Your Garden Grow

How does your garden grow?
Is it filled with yellow daffodils and perky petunias?
Or is it in need or pruning
Over run with weeds and debris

****
If you could paint a picture of your life
What would I see?
Would I see meadows of golden sunflower?
Smiling back at me
Or would I see a place deep and dark like the diamond mines of Africa
Fill with pain and death

*****
Would it be dry and parched?
Like the desert of the Kalahari
Or would there be streams flowing
Filled with rivers of water
Producing fruits in and out of season

*****
If you could paint a picture of your life
What would I see?
Would I see blossoms in springtime?
Or fallen leaves at winter’s edge
Tell me How Does your garden Grow.
