Controlled Chaos (a Poem by Cathy Gruman)


meet me on the corner
by the house with the garden full of controlled chaos
orange, purple, yellow, blue and red
green and white
dirt and water
pebbles strewn
a garden shovel sticks out' the ground
weeds that threaten, not to destroy
but symbols of the wholeness path
keep the weeds as a sign
remembering when but not again
and now the chaotic garden
possessing more beauty
than the weeds could possibly have done to overcome it.
