The Lawn

Like blades of grass

Each is unique

Despite differences in appearance

Each does, important words, speak...

 

The assembly of the parts

Makes up a whole object

Whose abilities reach beyond

What one might expect

By observing each part seperately...

 

Thus, the lawn health and pleasing

Tensions and concerns, easing

Each blade performs its duty

To enhance the lawn's enduring beauty...

 

Each of us in the human breed

Helps fulfill the every need

Of a world of unique individuals

Finding great residuals

Like the lawn.
