You are small But you will grow The grass will not always Look like a forest to you You will forget to relish the feeling Of dirt between your toes Your alarm will go off one morning And you will make your way to work And you will crush grass beneath your feet Absent mindedly Instead of eyeing it with wonder And wondering what magic Placed it there for you to play in You will mow your lawn, and I'm sure That you will ***** about it too You are small, but you will grow And the grass and I will miss you
