mondays // plant me a garden

i sit on the backyard patio

and i feel the breeze -- a chill breeze

the rushing colors of the wind and leaves

they change their colors too

when i think or rather i adore you

the green to brown to gold

the time of which we grow old

they remind me of winter's fast approach,

of the gap of our ages finally encroach

paling skin on wrinkled hands

if you or i move to better lands

i will promise to plant you a garden

as i wait for you, or plant me one

as you wait for me to go
