Garden of Love by Sondra [Poetry]

Garden of Love

Love starts out
Like a new garden spot
A heap of dirt
Open, unwalled, unprotected,
Yet viable
Able to grow, nourish us,
And beautify two lives
If proper care is taken.
Water it with affection,
Not tears.
Feed it with understanding,
Not fears.
Aerate it with warm hugs,
And open, honest Communication,
Not lies or fake flattery.
Light it with trust,
Truth and laughter,
Not emotional battery.
Weed it with full forgiveness,
Not old grudges and hate.
Harvest it with affection
And honor,
Not words that berate.
Mulch it with protectiveness,
Not anger and mistrust.
Reseed it with kindness,
Affection, truth, passion,
And some sensuality,
Not forgetting to add in
Some extra spicy lust.
Keep it warm during
Cold winters,
Making the effort to make it grow,
Allowing it to flourish
At its own natural rate,
Not forcing the harvest of two souls
To hurry along,
Then your garden of love
Will always grow and be strong.
