Analysis of The Gardener
A gardener,
like a mother,
watches over her plants,
Watches her seedlings grow,
Watches as they spread their wings through life,
Producing some of their own,
Just silently stands back,
Watching from a distance,
The gardener gives all they need in life to begin,
Before they make their own,
It’s their choice to be happy or angry,
But in the end,
The gardener has done all they can do,
And will still always love them.

About this poem
I wrote it for all those mums who can relate. At first I was going to do one about nature and how beautiful it is, but ideas just kept popping in my mind, whilst writing this.
