The Garden That You're Growing is a poetry book about the messy path to building a life you're proud of, and the people we love and lose on the way. This collection of poems weaves natural imagery and storytelling together to explore growing up, self-image, friendship, and faith. This book is for those who are on a journey of growth, or for those looking for a special gift for a friend.the garden that you're growing you're looking in the mirrorand don't like what you see.you're nothing like the personthat by now you thought you'd be. and the voices in your headstart telling you those lies, now there's a tremor in your lipand tears inside your eyes. they tell you about the otherswho are so much better than you, and you've heard it enough timesthat you start to believe it's true. that everything you've worked to beand everything you've madewhen put against another lifejust all begin to fade. but oh, you need to wipe your eyesto see things as they are.a life of your own makingshould never be put on par. and their grass just may be greenerbut that is not worth knowing.for the greenest grass cannot compareto the garden that you're growing.
