green-udge

they look beautiful today.
hundreds pooling everywhere.
on the streets.
my doorstep.
my steps.
like a lush garden growing out of the concrete.
i've never noticed them in their bright green state.
b/c in another week i'm going to be cursing them.
dried out and clogging my outside drain.
blowing into my house and tracking their way into every corner.
but for now, they're just really pretty.
like they could never turn into something annoying.
