Short Driveways Poems

Instructions for walking, listen very carefully
Put one foot in front of the other, it'll feel like ecstasy
If you step sideways
You'll wind up in driveways
Owners will think you're a felon and beat you unmercifully...

The agapanthus
for generations
lined the carriageways
and driveways

Silently yellow touches most
Soft sticky scented pollen gold
Does it coat wings of Heavenly Host

Silently yellow touches most

And churning burning helpless hearts.
The weather will change, my love,

Salt should be put down
For the safety to walk...
