Why we can’t grow sometimes.

The empty flower pot

Wilted Flower

sitting in the sun

No one has watered me in days

No encouragement even from the sun rays

Everyone walks by me and never looks down

Not even a glimpse as I sit desperate on this ground

I am seen as a empty flower pot

My buds will not even bloom

I am withering by the days, minutes and seconds

All I need is for someone to pay attention to me

Just a simple drop of water would do

Tug at my browns leaves , that has been consumed

Wilted Flower

Dying all alone

Just a little fertilizer would help me be strong

Wilted Flower

Dying from lack of concern or care

Who around you is wilting ?

Pay attention

Encourage someone and see God bless you. Water them with love and concern. Feed them if they are hungry, pray for them if they are downtrodden.Fertilize their spirit with a kind word. Add sunshine to a stormy day. I thank God for people sho continue to water me with encouragement. I thank God for DeeDee Wells, Carol Jones, Sister Tammi, First Lady Dawn Hunt-Walker, Minister Brenda Miller and all the other women and men of faith. Water me Jesus , Water Me !!! Rain down on me.
