Asparagus Patch
Asparagus Patch
We stroll along the sides of streets
That circle where we stay
She quickly sneaks as I stand guard
In some spots along the way
She saw some seeding stalks one fall
So in the spring she’s here
She secretly searches in the grass
With hopes to spot a spear
Someday I’ll score some seeds she said
And sew some in our yard
Since we split so few so many ways
With seekers on the boulevard
So if you ever spot an asparagus stalk
Let no one see your toils
cause soon they’re searching every spring
For a share of all the spoils
