A Carpet of Clover – v3

In this small space

something about the soil

easy to measure, to see,

a spare-bedroom-sized place

between the maple tree

and the front shrub,

just beyond, in front of

our bright dandelion patch

a carpet of white clover

shimmering, swaying

in the June breeze

new blooms bursting

ready for the harvest

of her little hands,

their shrieks of joy,

and giggles of wonder
