(chosen by David for Saturday 25th April)
"The emotional connections that being human generates are like garden weeds! They spring up from the force of our nature, and not necessarily in neatly-trimmed beds."
Untended beds relax to verdant hue:
Our conscious planting palettes change but still
Green nature's power has deeper roots that, through
Our nurture, bend but weakly to our will.
It is the call of clay to bring these plants
To life. And hearts, the loam of love, give rise
To warmths unbridled by our managed wants.
Unbidden tender blooms our plans defy.
