each leaf chlorophils this backyard
with summer greenness
and I sit happy to be here
midst all the burgeoning life of
flowers
grass
birds
weeds
garden
ants
robin beak digs into lawn searching
plump worm and I get to watch this opera
this do I not take lightly
when so easily it may be done
as simple as a song fading out
or a worm plucked out
of the ground and eaten
I doze and wake to witness wind shaking leaves
