A check every half a day,
to quench its thirst,
making sure it has light,
is it growing?
Let’s look at it again,
water – check;
light – check;
has it grown yet?
Health check again;
time for water break,
turn on the lamp,
why is it taking so long?
Patience I have to build up,
nurturing is essential,
I wait in anticipation for my baby’s growth.
It’s part of the human condition I think, that makes things happen the moment you look away. Lovely lines!
