Elephant ears

There are at least two ways to go with gardens...bigger or smaller.  I*m thinking bigger.

The rhubarb is a patch

Of elephant ears,

African elephant ears,

At one end of

What used to be

The garden bed

Until the boards rotted away.

Now it slides to lawn.

The ears flap

I can hear the elephants

Trumpet a call

For containment.

The boards come twelve feet long

At Home Depot.

I think a garden six by twelve

Might work to contain

The elephant ears,

The elderberry and more.

It might give all of us room

To play.
