Blade of Grass

There she stood
Next to the large tree
A smile of happiness
Grass stained knees
Dirt stained palms
Holding a blade of grass

There she sat
Knees pulled to her chin
Head buried
Tiredness shining through
After a hard day’s work
Next to a blade of grass

Yard work for her elders
A trip to the park
With a guy
Who admires her deeply
There they sat
On a blade of grass

She pulled a flower
He did too
Two dandelions tied together
Bonded by
A blade of grass
A blade of grass
