I Thought I Knew All I Needed To Know
Please, re-read the title.
In a haphazard way,
I discovered it is not so.
Simply by moving the chair in my backyard
to a different spot,
I discovered a new view.
Perhaps an angry angle of fence.
Are the neighbors aware?
I do not care.
I will stand my brown ground and
bright green leaves which grow as family
who should never leave me.
So give life all you have got
and move your chair to a different spot.
Go ahead and till brown ground and
grow green leaves and
live life...a lot.
