I Hear The Grass Growing

I hear the grass growing
See the leaves unfurl
No clock ticking
Telling them their journey
Their time is now due
Yet each and every year
They know just what to do.

 The reason I’ve discovered
A mind
A mastermind is holding court
Creating, making things
The way they should be
And telling them
Just what they should do.

What To Do

I read the lines, saw the words
But no thought came to mind
Had no idea what was said
No vision of what to do.

My soul was cold
My heart frozen over
My ears, my eyes
Knew not what to do.

My feet they left
Never knowing the answer
To the question asked
Never knowing what to do.
