The voluntary gardeners
Placed
signs along the fence
Announcing
that they’d given up,
Despite
their best intents.
“We
can’t maintain this lawn because,
Though
signage says No Pets,
The
owners let their dogs run wild,
Displaying
no regrets.”
Perhaps
these words have hit the mark
As
those in charge have dealt
A
reprimand that’s harsh enough
For
guilt to have been felt.
For
lately, there have not been any
Pets
upon that lawn,
Though
it may be too late for any
Grass
to grow upon.
