Leaves..don’t ya just love them?
Leaves
Last year i had a yard of trees
with lots and lots of leaves
the city said don’t burn them
compost and bag them please.
so i raked and baged up 40 bags
and i built a compost bin
i piled the leaves up six foot high
till i couldn’t put more in
i put mulch around my flowers
my shrubs and roses too
Hey, if you need mulch just let me know
i’ll rake you a bag or two.
one thing is for certian
i’ve had my fill of leaves
by autum of next year there’ll be
one less yard of trees.

Peter,
i wrote this one back in 1995…a old friend this poem is..I’d say that in the poem i’m saying i’m gonna cut them all down..but i promice, i wouldn’t do that..I love trees and leaves…
that’s really sweet. i love it. I ope you weren’t insinuating that a chainsaw was going to be the newest purchase!
keep it up
