I Am a Gardener

i am a gardener
i like plants
i like greenery
i move from place to place -
wherever i go
i lay a garden
i nourish the plants
like my children...
everyday feeding them
talking to them
i feel happy
when i see them
growing tall and big-
finally...
when the moment comes..
the moment to leave them
my heart becomes heavy
i start crying
as if i am leaving
my own children..
my dearest friends -
i take a vow
not to grow a garden again-
but i promptly
begin to lay a garden
all over again
where ever i go
what can i do...
after all i am a gardener
i love plants
i can't live without them!
