When the little blades pierce the air, Or when the lush green is rolled out like a mossy carpet, Rich and alive, It licks the rim of a glass house And fizzes from a hand in celebration, Pity the pretty bubbles die.
It runs from you like a little beast, But grows into a pale yellow monster, It exists and it jeers, It retreats and it abandones.
But you hope it returns, And you hope that it's evergreen.
