  3. #Vss365 (#Gardener's version)

    Today's word, #Closed, made me think of the Mimosa pudica, the #Shame plant, which #Folds its leaves when touched.

    The #English #Romantic #Poet, Percy Bysshe Shelley, wrote:

    A Sensitive Plant in a #Garden #Grew,
    & the young #Winds fed it with #Silver #Dew,
    & it #Opened its fanlike #Leaves to the #Light,
    & #Closed them beneath the #Kisses of #Night.

    & each #Flower & #Herb on #Earth's dark #Breast
    #Rose from the #Dreams of its #Wintry rest.

    #OTD William Blake, #English #Poet, born.

    The #Poison #Tree is about repressed #Anger & how anger can be #Cultivated.

    I was #Angry with my #Foe;
    I told it #Not, my #Wrath did #Grow.
    And I watered it in #Fears,
    Night & Morning with my #Tears.

    And it #Grew both Day & Night,
    Till it bore an #Apple bright;
    & my #Foe beheld it #Shine,
    & he knew that it was #Mine,

    In the morning glad I see
    My Foe outstretched beneath the Tree.
