Two Lenses

Two Lenses As I straddle my oak here and now down below me they’re having a cow my mother turns white my father ignites I survey every yard and say: ”WOW!” Lament for my oak and much better days The weather betrays the bend and the sway Climb up with my saw (it sticks in my craw) To cut memories and moments away.
