Pruners

Out in the garden is the place to be
Cutting and pruning the old oak tree
Edging the grass to where it should be
Hoping the sunshine will again be me.

Career Opportunities #2

Success in today's
Business world
Often comes with consequences

Like finding out
The little people
You stepped on to get
To the top
Were your own children

Rain

A sky full of rain
New life springs from brown parched earth
Green shoots from grey clouds
