GRASS

GRASS

Woke up this morning

Barbered the lawn

And bathed in the scent

Of new-mown grass

 

There, said the sun

Smiling on my efforts

Isn’t that better

Than sitting on your arse.

  1. Looking back on your work after mowing the grass is satisfying. I only have a small plot, barely big enough for a tree in the back and one in front, but finishing makes me happy. I don’t feel a smug, “I did a good job” feeling. I have a “that’s beautiful” feeling. I like your poem because it captures that.
