Perfect Garden
May 7, 2014
He only wanted a garden
Not just any,
He wanted the perfect garden
So he trimmed away many
The flowers kept on dying
Bugs he killed countless,
Yet they kept on flying
He watered for what seemed timeless
He trimmed, cut, and spruced
He only wanted a garden,
Taking a break he deduced
He only wanted the perfect garden
Yet as he looked back
Working all night, it was now dawn,
All the bugs had left, the flowers been clipped, and sweat trickled down his back
His garden was now gone.
