THE SMALL THINGS IN LIFE: A POEM

THE SMALL THINGS IN LIFE

purple and yellow pansies grow in the patio
brown ivy climbs the red brick walls
hopeful for green leaves and stems

sit out there
and read and
breathe

glimpses of sun shine among
the tall buildings and slanted roofs
bare trees waiting for Spring

the sky grey/blue
the wind took everything away yesterday
a dried-up gourd rolls around

a pair of doves comes to visit
