The Lawn

Lawnmower going on Sat am and the fresh smell of cut grass, as Dad pushes the lawnmower in his cut off jeans

  1. That sentence - yes, just that sentence brought the Soft, Silent echoes of a lawn mower buzzing in the summer heat. The smell of the grass comes clear as if I were there. And the vision of dad - yes, the cut off jeans, the white t-shirt brings the vision of the man - the man - who was at that time and always has been the most treasured and loved man in my whole life. The Soft, Silent Echoes brings tears to my eyes, as I wish that I could once again see those cut-off jeans following behind the buzzing lawnmower, pushed by "My Dad"!
