1Purple petals glisten

in a bath of midday light.

A dark summer, you know,

but this flower is shiny bright.

Fuzzy leaves are stroked

by fingers willing it to grow.

Encouragement is needed

on this remarkable gift bestowed.

It is a gift of dependency

in a desire to nurture a plant

(a desire to gain a hobby!)

and a desire to nurture a love

you sure did grant.
