GRANDMOTHER'S GARDEN

Rooftop mint
To serve with tea,
Parsley, sage
And rosemary
Pots of chives
Atop the walls,
A fence around
So no one falls
A hanging plant,
A lounging chair
For taking naps
And drying hair
Soft music hums
On the radio
To muffle traffic
Sounds below
Balloons and pigeons
Flutter by
Grandmother’s garden
In the sky
