I Found an Outdoor Friend

Abe V Rotor

In my room one day I wrote;
Clumsy, my pen dropped,
My own thoughts I fought,
Groped I alone in the dark.

My pen into a corner rolled,
Into a web of dust and web;
Into a story long untold,
No other but my own in ebb.

Vigor I lack, my eyesight poor,
Vegetables, fruits, all I detest,
Energy I’ve none to store,
That I dare not face any contest.

I swept the floor, opened the door,
Worked the garden, where a lost friend
I found again - Nature and more -
United we all are to the end.
