POSTCARD FROM A HOUSE IN SPRING LANE

for MBR
There are three sides of a house
in Spring Lane
Covered with green tree
The house looks maroon
When delivering a maroon car
in the backyard
Grass bends
And gravels cheer
Storms rush
Lighting and thunder starts
Oaks are daydreaming when you leave
But pines will wait
Under a sky
with fountains of stars to arrive
You are talking about full moon
And there are always full moon
in Spring Lane
With our neighbor's gray hound
Walking around
And guarding the grass
So grass too
is watching oaks
To ensure
They stay green
