Art
I counted thirteen lawn ornaments
in the yard
of the house at the end of my street
a chipped grey cement kitty cat
a mossy green scaly smiling dragon
a round purple pig nose tilted up to the sky
a sprightly yellow rabbit tall on his hind legs
a pair of hollow white washed talking heads
a shiny bespectacled blue grasshopper riding an orange bike
a white carousel horse with red saddle and gold merry-go-round post
a boy clutching a UK blue basketball
a tan sad clown with permanent concrete tears
a rainbow VW van complete with weather worn gnome atop
a brown squirrel nibbling a turquiose nut
a cotton candy pink angel with a broken wing
front and center
in a sacred spot
sits a bright carrot orange Buddha with dinner mint green cloak
reminding me that enlightenment can be found
anywhere in any color
