Trim me, but take thy time to think:
Ev’ry cut be your masterpiece,
Attend me to bathe and to drink,
Or else existence, I will cease.
Bonsais such like I, spoiled, minor
Can not be true white oaks or pines,
Wild, free, nothing would be finer;
Here I sit within your confines.
You flatter me, the way you paint,
Effortless strokes, you make me free,
Yet ‘tis true that this isn’t fate,
False, the way you depicted me?
Display me, show to all your friends,
Just like others you’ve done the same,
Dull I may be, color transcends,
Your lies are what gave me a name.
Cultivated by you, you gawk,
Your eyes, yes, I am worthy of,
Unique, I am, no one can mock,
I to you, am your one true love.
