Is it sad that life lacks the poetic flare But that is only if you are blind For I find the flare is everywhere In the chipped white painted cement *** Were dead plants lay to rot In the lightly faded red brick buildings That businesses reside in But over head in night times One can see the light shines And finds a friendly face Here perhaps those cracked sidewalks Were children use to jump and say That is the way we crack our mothers back The root that saw such sidewalks rise Slowly pushing out of the earth until The sidewalks wears a rising crack And that is only the nonliving things That catch my fancy Wait till you see how nature inspires me
