Compost
Oh, compost
Where for art thou compost?
Out there sitting silently in the garden
hiding among the trees
Oh compost, my darling compost
Thou shall be in my heart always
I think of you often
and then yet my thoughts do linger
with the sadness of your missed presence
That which is missed among my many fellow
gardens and common dwellings near and far
Oh compost
Where for art thou compost?
Though I do hope that my faith holds steadfast
that your presence among my windows and yonder balcony
with that decaying rotting organic matter
thriving worms and rich brown soil
Will nourish this land's ecosystem
This hope, forever true
A truth among the breeze
Thou art in my heart always compost
Oh compost
Forever you
