By Gypsie-Ami Offenbacher-Ferris
Left unattended,
a once vibrant garden
withers and dies.
The loving touch
of a gardener creates
blossoms of beauty.
Water, nutrients
attention and care
bring the Earth to light.
Left alone to burn
in the sand or drown
in torrential rains –
The lush budding vines
the emergence of perennials
are hushed by a cretinous fist.
Nature’s Glory stilled
unwittingly or willingly
by the appetite of man –
Will survive.
