Poems - THE MINDS GARDEN

THE MINDS GARDEN

by dav.smith

With-in the garden of my mind, I plant the seeds
which will grow to become
the friends and family that I so desire
But i know that there will be those
that will turn to unwanted weeds
and amongst the blooms of close friends and family
I leave them be, reminding me of the preciousness
of the flowers I pick to have with me.

what a wonderful way to look at relationships. yes some flower and bloom into beautiful gardens while others just don't take seed or if they do don't flourish. you did a great job on this one.

excellently symbolic dave. very much enjoyed. the problem with weeding out minds, is that you never know who someone calls a weed might become an orchid in the end.....sortta like the ugly duckling story. many gardens in the mind. some filled with spring flowers.....some fillrd wih spiky brambles - paul and floppy garden hound.

I like the garden idea. Maybe i'll change to that from my present computer analogy. Well-expressed poem. Rabbitt

G'day Dave...
Good lines to think about with a comparison. Thankfully in weeds and families there is diversity.
Thanks mate

Oh.. if there were no weeds...the preciousness of flowers would be lost.
How wisely and beautifully said!
warm wishes,
D.
