I love plant analogies.
Here is my sister’s:
I live like a gardener
doggedly tending the wild twist of their stems
fending off what I can of disease
It is impossible work
rooted where they are
and though their beauty demands
more strength than I lately possess
still I persist
in refusing to abandon the effort

Beautiful, Catnap. Much more poetic than my tortured words. In fact, no one seemed to get the vine twining up and around the dandelion part.
Thanks for sharing this!
Yes, she is brilliant. I believe I was adopted.
