Moving In

Being new upon the street,

  I found it looked incomplete.

There was no show.

  There was no beauty.

It was up to me.

  To complete the street.

 

I looked all around to savor.

  The need of color.

Then bring in vertical lines.

  A little Ivy, and growing vines.

Trees added for grace and shade.

  Lots of roses with fragerances to savor.

 

In the years and life moves on.

  You have added spark.

All of the wonder to the lawn.

  The color made it sing.

The wishes have enhanced you dreams.

  After filling the house and the  lawn, time to move on.
