    My Unfortunate, and Undying Plant

    My Unfortunate, and Undying Plant


    One day like every other day,

    She just popped out of the ground.

    That was the first time I’ve ever had a plant.

    There was a special bond between us.

    I could even experience what she felt.

    I felt so happy and kind of mellow.

    She hasn’t found any water or sunlight.

    Her leaves started to turn yellow.

    I kept hoping that rain will fall on her.

    Hoping that the sun will shine upon her.

    But where could she finds any water, or sunlight

    On this dry, rocky, and weary land

    Where the sun rise, but doesn’t give any light.

    Where the sky is always cloudy, but never rains.

    What is the point of having a plant

    In a place where there’s no season?

    It hurt really bad seeing her like that.

    I tried to pull her out of the ground,

    But I couldn’t even budge her.

    her roots grew big and deep into the ground.

    I thought the lack of water and sunlight would've killed her,

    But then I realized that I was totally wrong.

    Her leaves and her flowers are wilted,

    But she has not weakened a bit.

    Instead, it just grew bigger and bigger

    And leaves me here with these sad feelings.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
