A Series of Squares – v2

The work, the lawn
carved up into a series of squares
crisp edges, overlapping rows
breaking all up, the work,
a section at a time.

Like parts of a maze,
a prayer labyrinth
in the segments, the squares
the rectangles and the edges,
all woven, walked, together

A series of squares,
around the trees, the pines
at the edge of the hill,
between the beds, the flowers,
their soccer field

A pattern of pieces
together a one project
watching the skies
for the clouds above
rounding each corner
to finish the whole
