Kermitage

I’d like my alone place
To have
Green

I’d like to sing
And ride a bicycle
And live
Some parts of animated
Miracles

I’d like some time to contemplate
And then I’d like my green self
To find
Company with others
Maybe on a sunlit street
Or on a grander set

Or if a pond
A pond
That might be a homecoming
Anyway

Some place small or large
With people small
And large
Who look like me
Or never shall
And so be wonder to me
Maybe to
All
All the time

Green
And otherwise
My being green
At
Least in part
Forever
