The Next Loving Gardener

Men should treat women

Like lovely flowers needing

Tender emotional care & showering affection

Neglecting these fragile needs

Could turn your relationship

Into a lost perennial mystery

Leaving you all alone

Making you unable to become

The designated caretaker

Of every beauty seed

Dwelling within them

For all eyes to see

Representing a growing attractiveness

Forever bonding the essence

Of a loving & mutual

Relational chemistry

Between all men & women

Of humanity

Men be careful

In your own affectionate garden

Rooted womanly rose petals

Can always

Venture off & blossom elsewhere

Ripping away the roots

Of any past candor gone wrong

Making way for a new courting 

Cross-pollination

As they're on the move

To be in

The Next Loving Gardener's

Fertile & Alluring flower bed

Now seen as

A comfortable emotional abode

Once they've chosen to go down

Life's seasonal loving & potted road

Well said, there are better gardeners than one who cultivates only weeds in a relationship...

Never take a beautiful and devoted woman for granted, that's the feeling I come away from this poem with. Well-said and well-written :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is quite beautiful and so true...flowers will find another garden to bloom in if not taken care of properly...

the sod will be darker and richer elsewhere.

[Alveron]

Good poem I loved the last 4 lines and the ability to rhyme whilst keeping the meaning of the poem alive.
