Each blade of grass a story
each paving stone a poem
knitted of lichen & moss
punctuated by five-petaled
sky-blue flowers so tiny
they defy the eye of anyone
who fails to stop & stoop
over their miniature bower
(only a select few ever do)
& so the stories & the poems
go largely unnoticed content
in their role delighting
(mostly) artists & amblers
& the patient companions
of slow-sniffing dogs
