Finding yourself can be difficult

In this crazy, hectic world.

Take your troubles into nature

Let all your worries unfurl.

Spend some time nurturing flowers

Smell the soil, water it well

If you focus, you can tell.

The plants will feed your soul

Renew your spirit too

In a reciprocal situation

And you’ll both be like new.
