When you bloomed, I questioned myself.
I looked at you as if you were the grass always greener on the other side, even though you were in my garden.
You were in my garden.
I stood guard like a dog.
Was it your choice to sink your roots into my half-fertile soil ? ?
Sun, rain, wind, shade.
Other shoots spring from your feet.
Thysanoptera, Aphididae, Tetranychus Urticae, Aleyrodidae.
My efforts burn in contemplating your infection.
I dug you out, eliminated them, because your grace is made by being the only flower in the garden.
In the center, sprinklers and glass cages.
I feel pride as possession; I enjoy the gifts that cover you, which you care for.
A piece of my skin that passes for one of your petals, turn into fertilizer.
