Tread lightly, flowers
cannot grow under foot
without light or spring air
Step around your brothers
not over their poor beds
Give them breathing room.

Yes, people are like gardens,
to be nurtured and cared for.
thanks for extending the metaphor.

Nourish and give care for the things you luv, as they not grow if left alone. Good advice. :)
