Good Soil
In the good soil
grows a flower,
strong and tall
and lush with youth.
The gardener cares for the flower
in the good soil
and the flower
flourishes.
One day the
gardener finds the young flower
in the good soil
wilting, weakening.
Why, thought the gardener,
is my beautiful flower dying
when she’s planted
in the good soil?
