I Have this Garden of Poems








full of flowers that bloom
at first
and then carried away with my greenthumb
i planted everything
trees and more trees and shrubs and bamboos
and vines and hanging plants

almost everything
and so the blooming flowers died
and the grasses diminishing like some
hair of this baldness

but nothing is lost in this garden of poems
the birds came and built their nests
some are still coming
every morning
and then the chirping begins

That was given to me
Stole that from my family
I bought that
I'm labelling the stuff I got
figuring what I've lost
I'm looking into boxes
trying to see myself
Everything was close together
when I woke up today
The Welcome mat
destroyed by the cat
that I let in one day
It could not settle down
so I had to let it go
This house isn't mine
and that I know
the truth coming out of the melting snow
of the lawn of the previous owner
It's int he way the windows close
to greet me when it rains
