STONE WALKWAYS IN THE GARDEN
Not flat exactly
but flat enough
for any sensible shoe
Colors, no two the same,
but same enough, as
two cows in a pasture,
to maintain a pastoral theme
Earth’s earliest bubblings set
and glaciers push and slice
plus workman’s choice of fit
enshrines his nameless name
To form from mud and sod
tis the work of God
the work of man to try
to walk upon it all, dry shod
