Watering Chart Tuesday

[Intro]

(Drip) Watering chart —

Tuesday keeps me true

[Verse 1]

Soil under a fingertip, the chart is taped beside the glass,

One square marked for Tuesday noon, one for the roots that ask;

I tip the spout like a quiet vow, I watch the leaves unfurl,

If green can wait for careful hands, then I can slow my world.

[Pre-Chorus]

Check the box... breathe out...

On time.

[Chorus]

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Little grid of care against the pane;

I show up for the roots, I show up for the roots,

If growth is slow, that's fine —

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Steam on glass, a patient scene;

I show up for the roots, I show up for the roots,

Water, wait, and I begin.

[Verse 2]

Evening light across the tray, I move the pot an inch to sun,

No speech, just soil and schedule, a job that feels like one;

The room smells faintly like a garden even when the street is grey,

I close the chart like a soft salute — another honest day.

[Pre-Chorus]

Check the box... breathe out...

On time.

[Chorus]

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Little grid of care against the pane;

I show up for the roots, I show up for the roots,

If growth is slow, that's fine —

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Steam on glass, a patient scene;

I show up for the roots, I show up for the roots,

Water, wait, and I begin.

[Bridge]

Roots need time and so do I,

No rush inside a quiet sky;

A square of ink can hold a vow —

Tuesday teaches how.

[Final Chorus]

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Little grid of care against the pane;

I show up for the roots, I show up for the roots,

If growth is slow, that's fine —

Watering chart Tuesday — I keep the promise green,

Steam on glass, a patient scene;

I show up for the roots — and I begin,

Water, wait, and I begin.

[Outro]

(Drip) Tuesday...

Promise green.
