Parallels

I've developed quite the
green thumb as of late.
It takes patience
and a gentle hand
to grow a seed into
a beautiful, thriving plant.
Attention to detail is key.
Too much or too little
of anything could be
detrimental.
Cutting away old growth
promotes new growth.
If I notice a plant not doing well,
research does a world of good
and makes me an
even better gardener.
I'm a believer in
talking to my flowers to
help them flourish.

It seems to me,
if given the chance,
these newly honed talents
would be put to better use
in other aspects of my life.
