The Gardener

The Gardener is at work
pruning and cutting

Some need tender care
Some need to be removed

Some lush green.
Flowering. Blooming.

Some steady yellow.
Not dead. Not alive.

Some dull brown.
Withering. Wilting.

I have many branches within me.

How do you know what needs to live
and what needs to die?

The Gardener knows.
I am not the Gardener.

A weed is a plant living where it does not belong.
