Redbud No. 2

There is a small redbud outside my office window.  My window is level with the sidewalk.  If it were an apartment, it would be a garden apartment.   I have decided it is a garden office.  There is no need for a container garden in my window well.  No.  I have a redbud!  It is better than any container garden I might plant.


I was welcomed home
By the redbud on Sunday.
When I got to the office today
I noticed a small redbud
Out my window.
Better than any container garden,
I have a redbud here as well.
Better than any garden apartment,
I have a garden office:
A window that opens and shuts,
Child voices in the hall,
A redbud in full bloom.
It is better
Than anything I could plant
Myself.
