scratches in my mind - esteem
Another thought-provoking senryu
adore me, of course

plant my words, as seeds

Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: Another in my "scratches in my mind" series. The links to the others can be found below.
scratches in my mind - passion
scratches in my mind - perspective
scratches in my mind - disingenuous ignorance is bliss...
scratches in my mind - per sempre
scratches in my mind - only four letters
