Something Green
you don’t have
to have
a hundred acres
to be happy
you don’t even have
to have
a backyard
to be happy
dirt is free
natural and abundant
dig some up
and put some in a pot
or a container
or whatever
and put some holes
at the bottom
drain out the water
seeds or rooted plants
don’t care where
you put ‘em
whether it’s a hundred acres
or the backyard
or a single pot
something good will grow
if you water it
and put it in the sun
and hum
you’ll be happy
