The Gardener cares for his precious creations. Because of Him we grow, bloom, and stand tall.

I知 standing tall with vibrant bloom,
My Gardener delights in me,
Bestows sweet scent beyond perfume
And cares for me so tenderly.

With gentle touch He gave me life,
Created me with beauty rare,
I know I知 precious in His sight
And firmly rooted in His care.

Thrive under gorgeous sunlit sky,
He grows me from the inside out,
Stay confident He will supply,
His love I値l never be without.

Though dry days come, become depressed,
I thirst for healthy way to cope.
The Water like a sweet caress
Appears and drenches me with hope.

With whipping wind, torrential rain,
Strong storms descend upon this hill,
In Him endure, withstand the pain,
And find I知 standing straighter still.

I知 standing tall with vibrant bloom,
Amazed in all the ways I致e grown,
His love does all my heart consume,
In garden I am not alone.

I love this sweet, little take on life. You summed things up nicely, neatly, and to the point.

Great job.

I love this poem and the thought behind it. I tripped on a few lines because of rhythm, but none-the-less I really like it. Blessings.

Lovely word picture - and I especially like the fourth stanza. Lovely!

Very well-crafted. I think Mid's right about adding "the". I always give people who write their entries in poetry, extra points. Although, I'm not a judge, so it really doesn't matter, really. ;)
