Garden

The garden died
Rain does not come
No care given
Weeds creep and crawl
The owner exclaims,
"What a shame!"
"It used to be so colorful and lovely!"
"It Used to be worthwhile"
Still the garden is ignored
Still no rain
Still more weeds
Where is the gardener?
Who will nurture this spot?
It dreams of flowers
Yellow, Purple, Pink, Red, Blue
It dream of old days
Who will help the garden grow?
When will it bloom again?
Slowly it forgets how to bloom on its own
Still it dreams of being whole
