I am on death's door, reflecting on the garden we planted 5 years ago. I only have the strength to lay in bed these days, so I can't go very many places. Nobody really lives with me anymore, but Gonzalo checks on me every once in a while. He gets me my food and water also.

I eventually married Lateesha, and we have kids as well. We live in the country, and I work as a farmer to keep us going. I really got into the farmer thing from 5 years ago. We don't live in Cleveland anymore, but we visit there very often. Our child is 7 months now, and she's named Stacy. However, we aren't producing enough crops, and the last of our money is trickling away...

I had my kid about 4 years ago. His name is John, and he's full of energy. I stopped wishing he would die after that girl Leona talked to me that day in the garden. We are very good friends now also. We still live in Cleveland. That garden never stopped. I took part in it for a while, but I have to take care of John as well. My biggest problem is that only I can take care of him, and I work a parttime job too. I need somebody to help us so he dosen't have to go to that horrid daycare so often...

That garden they planted 5 years ago is really coming along. I'd like to check on it more, but in my elderly age I can't as much. It was summer now, and before my time came I wanted to see it once more. I don't live with anybody either, so I'm very lonely.

The garden we started a ling time ago still is full of life. I feel very proud inside that I started the whole idea. My older sister went to college last year, so I'm all alone with my mom. I'm not saying that's bad, but I'm much lonlier than before. The garden is slowly losing popularity though, and I'm afraid that if it is gone, than I really won't have anything to do.

I've been watching over the beauty of the community garden for a long time. I live alone now, but I never feel lonely when i'm at the garden. everybody knows me now. But suddenly, the garden started losing popularity. I don't know why. But somehow, i needed to stop this.

My dad eventually got some big bucks for all that lettuce when he grew it at the right time. I got my bike too! Now I'm in high school. I do well in my classes. I live a normal life at home with my family too. But now the garden isn't as popular anymore. My dad didn't want this to stop, because he would lose his lettuce.
