You told me to write a poem

You told me to write a poem

Sometimes I don’t think 
The grass is greener on which side 
I wish I could scrub my mind 
Which day will be one of a kind

You told me to write a poem 

I sat under a cherry tree 
Just wait and see 
I ate carrots in a strawberry patch 
I don’t care much for life’s lemons

You told me to write a poem 

I don’t know much 
I’ve found the devil at heart 
Life doesn’t restart 
A ladybug fears shoes 

You told me to write a poem 

I don’t know if I did what you asked
Trees love a summers breeze 
The brain is wrapped in insanity
Be you and not them 

You told me to write a poem
