With the changing seasons, I’m the deepest green, sometimes dry and brown I ‘m tall and wave when the wind blows Or sometimes short when I am freshly mown. I’m like a green thick lush blanket Sometimes used in sports fields For golf, football or cricket, baseball and softball I am very durable with contact play. Warmed by nascent sun gentle rays They walk on my uniform soft blades With confidence, giving-way under their feet Sometimes I’m damp and cool. If, I’m brown and dry stubble A crunch beneath their feet you will hear. I reclaim the earth and thrive. My shoots stand tall to reach the sky. I so enjoy the brightness of the day And cool air after fresh rain-shower. I shelter earth and insects and what matters And maybe a dandelion or two in the spring. 8/25/2023
