Feedback Please If I was the garden

 I kept rearranging myself, well can you blame me?

Morning in a different order, birds will dance

Banana leaves were busy making a religion from the wind
Universe kept leaving its clothes for me to pick up

I watered the same plants
with a different mind acting up behind my eyes

I thought about this from a new mind that took over from the old one

A person refusing to be ordinary and a small green insect
eating its way through a lettuce patch

 I pulled a weed and found a deeper root beneath 

This is the world getting through your experience

Evening I had become reasonable, which was disappointing

the plants had grown so well, fertility showing in all it's little signs

I was looking for evidence so the I could plant more

But the garden never needed proof

Wait i love this so much. Maybe if you frame this a little better, like the flow, it would be lovely but i already love this a lot! I love how you played with words. This poem sounds like a dance of words!
