Real things need to grow, maybe needing, water, advice, or revisions. things need effort, the quiet art of tending the slow practice of choosing to care. Unlike a plastic flower which doesn't grow Since there's nothing to give Nothing to take or show, It's pretty low, Fruitless and the without rest, Maybe it's best to give it a test, If there's nothing to give no roots will grow, If you give the wind no air There's nothing to blow Are you still questioning what that shows? If you try to throw but Put no effort to let go It will look only as if you froze your hand stays tight, your motion frozen, No arc, no distance, no proof of how far you could throw and if so, then no growth
