“it’s simple really- care for me and you will have me, abundant and bright. sing to me and i will compose an orchestra of colors for you. touch me gently, with good intent, and i will never prick you with sad thorns. love me and i will love you in return.” that is what the garden said to me when i was lost and unfeeling. i can tell you now that she is my favorite little world, and she is beautiful.
