Where he laid down his books taller grass overlooks yonder green, which the landscaper mows and he smiled to himself, "Here they'll stay, with my wealth and if found on this ground, well who knows?"
Like the soft lullabies calm the child who cries though he can't know the words, what they mean yet the music comes thorough and the words call to you from the soil where the tall grass is green!
Where the tall grass stays green and though none has 'er seen any books to these days guess they've all blown a ways but the wealth of this man can you all understand is the land where the grass never greys!
yes, it's true and indeed this old man knew his seed and indeed grew green grass that was tall that's not all...
it was in his own hand that he wrote "Golf is Grand" and his song to this day sung by all.
a poem I wrote for my dad about a man who grew his business, developing a hybrid seed which grows super green tall grass with strong roots which, when planted on hillsides would prevent landslides in heavy rain. Though his invention was used on hills far and wide, and prevented slides which would have been catastrophic, few people would give the name of it's inventor a thought. He did not care about fame, and instead his legacy was in authoring a simple little song called "Golf is Grand'". Ironically, and for obvious reasons, the thing which made him a very wealthy man was not especially popular with golfers, something he played almost every day.
