Soul's Soil Shared

Gardens growing side by side
incarnate beauty with brilliant brightness
sharing color in life's shades of grey.
Powerful, positive, presence,
like a sunflower seeking suckling sun's rays,
calling forth life's light.

Gardens growing side by side.
Yours, well tilled with nurturing toil, in fed soil.
Nutrient sucking weeds discerning destructive,
pulled, giving life's light to budding blossoms uncovered.

Gardens growing side by side.
Mine, pale comparison,
with wild weeds deceptive.
I, from you,wise weeding woman,
learned to be an earth tender.
Pulling, old rooted weeds.
Discovering, my garden's beauty beneath,
like wild flowers under the forest's blanket.

Gardens growing side by side.
Sharing plots, poised and planted.
God the Gardener,"Grace."
Fed in freindship,
watered in Word,
growing in splendor.

Gardens growing side by side.
Yours, now, transplanted.
Love lingers,fertilizing my soul's soil,
with your eternal beauty.
