My Garden Poem by ratnaprabha raykar

Dreading the worst, I stepped into my garden

steeling myself for a situation grave...

after lastnight's rainblast

fearing for my saplings small

big ones did not merit my fear

but stood still I.....

The saplings seemed refreshed as after a coffee

big ones shone with greenery,

if green could

and the lawn seemed perfect

I need not fear...

as Almighty cares

I need not fear for my young ones too

as the Almighty that cares for THEM

cares for MINE too
