Shaded place

Rows of plants

Lush green leaves

Large and small

Few stand tall

Many green balls

Some climb high

On the wall

Some with flowers

Red and pink

Yellow and white

Or lilac green

But standing out

In a corner far

An empty pot

Alone and dry

On good days it had

Flowers and fruits

Abandoned now

By stems and roots

Out of the shade

Now in the sun

Reflecting on its

Ouster
