NURTURING

A tiny seeding
Cuts across the tough barrier
And peeps out say hello.
Victory for the little warrior!

Sun shines down a sweet smile
Rain is a blessing after the strife
The wind gushes to greet it.
World welcomes a new life.

Being born from the womb was easy
The challenge is to survive
For now it needs nurturing
It needs love to thrive.

Someone to water it daily
Someone to mow the soil
Someone to protect it from danger
It's a lot of hard work and toil

Into a beautiful plant it will grow
If it gets the right nurturing
The gardener has to keep caring
To keep it healthy and blossoming

It's the same with relationships
You have to nurture with love and care
It needs time,patience and involvement
Whenever needed, you have to be there.

Not only when the relationship blossoms
But always, as slowly it gets deeper.
Like a gardener you have to tend to it.
If you want it to last forever.
