I tend my poems as garden <br />The misspelled word thrown out as weed <br />An “a” or “the” examined for its impact and allowed to stay <br />Perhaps even a whole poem tilled over after sober reflection <br />Past the molten moment of creation <br />A poem can be tended as a garden thing.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poetry-as-a-garden/
