Blades of Grass by Ivan Guerrero Najera

Blades of Grass


The touch of green and new
Of dew on palms
The blades of grass
Cut fresh, a scent that calms

I find the morning song
To bring me back to youth
To long where I belong
And shocked to see the truth

This is my life today
Reflecting like a puddle
Some dirt, some mud, I huddle
To savor memories my way

And barefoot on the lawn
And morning breaking dawn
I welcome wisdom, see
Come share melancholy
