you know, i am getting an award

of the best gardener tonight

I mean, the planted gardens,

 

But then who has seen the garden

in my backyard

full of plants I did not sow

full of thorny bushes that I did not remove

with some insects that I did not kill

and the birds that came even when

I forgot to feed them

Will I be even called a gardener if

 they reckoned the gardens in backyard

 

I have to live with this failure

All my life

But then is not life an unplanted garden too

And have I done too badly there

Have i?

Tell me, tell me

My dear, tell me please
