you grab the fruit but you do not

water the tree

                           then you cry in silence at night without asking

the tree why
Why it can no longer bare fruit

your thoughts circle a dead end street
and scream “BARREN”

But why

Why don’t you just water the tree
Skills, relationships, careers etc

must be watered
Whatever is drying up in us needs watering
as do others in our life
