 Twenty-one Words, Twenty-one Lines

                   ( for imaginary garden...)



borrow laughter, return tears of snow
   weather birth of fences
        deck of death

   children, weeds
        teenagers, trees
           parents, garden

      neighbors stoop,
           barbecue potluck,
               handshake

borrow tears, return laughter
   weather death of fences
         deck of birth

     teenagers, weeds
           parents, trees
               children, garden

        potluck stoop
            barbecue neighbor
               handshake

parents, weeds
   children, trees
       teenagers, garden
