He gave her a small strange seed
She didn’t know what it was
She looked at all the books
Checked everything online
There was nothing to be found
She didn’t have anything for plants
She had a mug that he had given
Weeks ago that she loved
The seed fit perfectly
With the dirt from the yard
A cut from a shovel borrowed
She wrapped the cut on her thumb
She turned back to find the seed
Had magically grown to be
A small plant bright green
That she quickly watered
Later the mug snug in her hands
She sat near the window with rays
The plant stood tall and strong
Sent hope that she was needed
Exactly what he wanted
