A Good Little Girls Zine

Backyard Play

Red buds line 
thin long branches
trees stand firm 
guarding
baby purple flowers

lime-green moss 
fly
across the garden floor
playful birds spread
across the garden sky

brown dead leaves dangle
with finality
life and death 
side by side
work and play
side by side
fly together across 
the garden
