For my Tomato Plant

You're just a tomato plant,

but I swear

those leaves wave at me

like we’ve known each other

for years.

Your fruit hangs low,

pink as shy roses,

like you're blushing

from the sun’s

attention.

I check on you

more than my emails.

You're the best thing

I’ve grown

all year.

E. C. Mira

I’m a poet at heart, always chasing the quiet moments and turning them into words. Most of what I write is poetry, but every now and then inspiration pulls me in new directions.
