We Grew Together





Let the grass grow under my feet
Let it curl around my ankles like a cat
Green and tonguelike, let it lick my heels with morning dew
__and caress my passing calves
__stain my knees
__cushion my seat
Let it crowd around my shoulders, braid my hair,
__offer itself a pillow to my cheek:
I will accept it, adjoin it, adore it.
