A Blade Of Grass Poem by Alex Alexander

A Blade Of Grass

Damp from the early morning dew:
Glitter off the moon night light sparkles
Reaches toward distant reflection swaying
Outstretched wind breeze.
Unimpeded by surrounding turf, to the
Tune of barefooted kids running aimlessly
Through forest meadow maze, in a game of
Hide and seek: laughter, sharp blades
Needle pins silky sheen plush, afternoon
An evening fresh cut sends the aroma smell
Throughout the neighborhood: as the neighbor
Spread lawn chairs out across Bermuda
Grass; BBQ grills eating charcoal sound.
Popping, blanket toss on the napping lawn.
Across the field, just beyond eyesight;
Yet in view, brown, black spotted livestock
Grazing green grass to deliver white milk.
And down beneath their feet; alone comes
Willie Wally a caterpillar, wallowing in the
Evergreen. As he passes his neighbor Danny
Daddy's long legs; Mr grasshopper, nibbling on.
Blades of grass hopping from blade to weed,
Camouflage is busy Himself. Being rogue; in
Solitude, as the evening escape:
