The Blue Rose

I am the empty bean shell  
I am the cucumber that got too cold    
I am the tomato that didn't get enough water    
    
My garden is excellent in the spring    
My garden is mediocre in the summer    
My garden is forgotten by fall    
   
Our pantry is full    
Our cupboards are overloaded    
   
The family is fed    
The family is tired    
   
I wish i knew what I was doing  
   
We knew what was coming  
We knew our fate  
   
I didn't
