Adding Spice to Life
On the day you were born,
sweet Basil,
deer were in the woods
watching us slow down.
On the day you were born,
sweet Basil,
a large flock of geese
floated on the creek.
On the day you were born,
sweet Basil,
we saw a mallard and his mate
and a merganser.
On the day you were born,
sweet Basil,
Your older brother had
garlicky hummus on pita for lunch
with slices of cucumber.
