Too Late in the Day
We never
Knew just how much
He
Ploughed into our lives
Those
Trash cans and recycle bins
Not once
Emptied by themselves
The
Grass did not mow itself
The fence and punctured wheel
We owe him
So much gratitude
But it’s too late now I feel
We just never
Guessed I guess and
Now there’s nothing left to say
By the time
That it dawned on us
It was too late in the day
