ALLIE'S SURVIVORS PLACE

THE PLANT THAT GREW
By Rose Katts

A plant was brought to you one day

It was very unhealthy and very weak

It's root system was dry and very weak

You did not know what would become of it

You took the plant and nurtured it and gave it water.

You talked and put it on the window gently

As the days went by you could see new growth

Slowly it became stronger from your nurturing

Although it was struggling from it's very weak root system

however you did not give up on the plant and it grew

First a sprout then a leaf one by one as each day went by

Beautiful leaves grew on a stronger stem from your love

As you kept nurturing and loving the plant grew

And one day little bud started coming out on the plant

The plant root system was a lot stronger from your love

Eventually the bud began to open slowly and to bloom

Into a beautiful red rose that was healthy and strong roots

DEDICATED TO MARG. MY SPECIAL COUNSELLOR

whom has dedicated her time and love in helping me get stronger.
