The outdoor trees sway in the breeze

They gently lose their beautiful green jewels 

Grass tickles my feet

The flowers look sadder than ever - Run my dear, they scream

 

I run with tears in my eyes 

As every single leaf turns grey like the moon

I peer over my fence and see pain in their heart

I see litter on the ground

I run to help but two hands are not enough

 

Spring sees the return of colour and vibrant greens

They say hello again and cover me with joy

They are thankful for my actions 

And forgive and try again for another season to survive
