I remember there were flowers:
A garden, where daisies grew like wind,
and irises shone like purple moonbeams.
Dandelions sprouted around a gopher hole,
And an apple tree bore fruit
That was sweeter than ice cream,
And thicker than memories, and sour cream.
The raspberries floated across the bushes
As if they did not care whether or not they were picked.
I wish I could float like they do.
I wish I could float like the hummingbirds do,
With wings of jade and amber,
Crystalline crumbs, dusty on the garden walls,
Next to a Japanese maple.
The water from the hose is still sweet;
Mixed with the crispness of the fan inside the house,
The mice came out for peanut butter,
And I ran out for freezies,
Watermelons, blueberries and red honeysuckles,
Chickens and hens, geometrically opening
Tiny wings, just for me
And I still remember: there were flowers,
Ivy coating the garden wall.
