LATE SUMMER CHORES
Landscapers are having a spree,
At our place and work, you see…
What flowers to save
‘Til the first cold wave,
In case it comes early.
–
Before that cold wave comes,
Many people put in hardy mums…
Ornamental heads
To fill emptied beds,
As the crescendo of nature’s year hums.
–
I stroked my ego today,
For all these landscapers in play…
Replaced one man (me)
With humility,
My back won’t let me, anyway.
—Jonathan Caswell
