A while ago,
when the grass was still green,
and the lawn was still a blanket of flowers,
we got along.
But as the falls orange leaves,
decided to float down,
he decided to leave mama,
and then we fell apart.
Everyday I went down in the garage,
and out the doors,
to kick leaves,
and sing rock songs.
But I grew-up,
4 became 5,
and 5 became 6,
and I notice his problem.
The bottles that laid around,
and his smell and voice,
The way he didn’t walk,
but he stumbled.
Sometimes I miss him,
and the garage,
and the leaves,
but mostly the grass.
