Notes About The Poem

For Bite Size Contest No123 Poetry Contest sponsored by Line Gauthier 

One Side of the Story

Adored by all the plants and trees,
but forsaken by his wife,
he loved the sound of a gentle breeze,
and gave the grasses life.
When she said, "time to mow the lawn",
he knew which side that he was on.
