![]() WorksA Poem by Donald MeikleShe's in the garden kneeling on soft plastic pulling handfuls of weeds and witch grass from among her favorite poppies
picked from roadside Mannheim thirty or more years ago. I'll be there to empty her weed buckets if Sunday morning laziness will let me .Where's the poetry in this? The taste of pollen on her cheeks- the brushback freckled forehead-soft sureness of her constant creation of our Eden. © 2014 Donald Meikle |
