Inner Grease

Garden was green,
flowers pink,red,yellow,
blue,orange and black,
buds had cracked,
and young flowers preened,
the peaceful lake was picturesque,
with pristine tranquility,
soothing eyes and what not,
lush verdant carpet,
spread far and wide,
spreading a fragrance quite unique,
all appeared as if it was heaven,
it was man made,
and maintained,
and men were there,
so were women and kids,
from their first look alone,
one could say,
most were not with nature,
while nature was at peace,
most of men,
appeared troubled,
as if smeared with,
a lot of dirt,
and unerasable inner grease.
