Brown and Grey

Brown and grey
Brown and grey
What does the winter garden do all day?

White and brown
White and brown
Nothing much to hear, it doesn't make a sound.

Ho and hum
Ho and hum
Grey and brown makes me feel all glum.

Then a voice said "ho!"
"Look below!
Take a little moment now and say 'hello!'"

Beside my boot
In his green suit
He said "I am the one who tends the root!"

"You might say
It's brown and grey
But just you wait til one spring day!"

"Soon the roots
Will send up shoots
And you'll see flowers in the month of May!"

Then the wee gnome
Hid behind a stone
And burrowed down below to his earthen home.

Though brown and grey
On this winter's day
The garden really DID have a lot to say!

Though the poem was short, I still got the chance to enjoy the content for some reason. I love reading short but meaningful poems because you understand every word written there. At the same time, you can feel the sincerity that comes from the poet. Personally, I prefer this kind of poem because it’s not complicated to look at. When reading a certain piece, one of the main factor that I look at is if’s easy to understand or not.
