Notes About The Poem

Nothing New Under the Sun

Lack of sun, we bought a house in the West
The sun liked us very much
Outside the house, grew plants

The garden East of the house is verdant
The North and South are so-so
The West, the dirt is brown

We thought to grow a garden over there
The seeds refused to open
The sun had scolded them

We dug an open well to persuade them
The sun scolded the well too
Today we move back East
