tending one's garden demands
patience and practice
making your buds grow
guiding them gently
trim them up the trellis
then prune them well
so that their growth
will be strong
practice and patience
sooner or later
most of the time
your blooms find their way
to climb the lattice,
but even the old gardener
keeps a vigilant eye
then hopes that
the dirt will be full
of wiggly worms aerating
and the rain substantiates
the new crop - strong
independently spouting
