memmory of grass

memory of grass

how happy is a single leaf of grass
does not have to remember
does not have to regret
all the things it has gone wrong

no sorrow over splitted milk
no cry for lost friend
no pity for old fools
and no smile for first kiss

memory of grass
is memory of presence
just here and now
torn from the roots
and easy to care
like non iron shirts

there's no time to be jealousy
Alzheimer can
get you too

the grammar here needs to be corrected,

How happy is for a single leaf of grass
does not have to remember
does not have to regret for
all the things it has gone wrong.

...

Remember to use upper cap for each first letter of each paragragh when start writng a good poem. and do not use short hands like "don't" instead of "do not".

and oh its "memory" not "memmory".
