Chocolate Garden

From my good neighbor Livin south of the borderline I get my share of avocados From interstate 65 I married one to love Tomato from my backyard Then ceremonial garlic salt Rained from the everlasting stars Oh my good neighbor Down the line at the Carry farms Where one day soon a child of wonder Will be a child of all And I'm still broken about The mother I had in mind But she flew the fields Crop circles aside My queen of the cob I loved you then and always will I got everything I need Chocolate earth And a bag of seeds And the leakage from the good lord's water bed Should my vegetables go rotten From my garden long forgotten I will lean upon the kindness of my friends Wash along with the dinner plates My helping hands She was a hurricane dancing in the dark My colored cove He put the hammer to the nail That sparked the flash that drove her home He was the mood that nearly Pulled the blue right off the earth Around the time of the shake and burst Of embryonic forest neighbors Offered a choir Of crouching angels To whip him through The house we built And made our love in the crochet quilt There in the last of the dawns we prayed Was all I ever wanted for you I got everything I need Chocolate earth And a bag of trees And the leakage from the good lord's water bed Should my vegetables go rotten From my garden long forgotten I will lean upon the kindness of my friends Wash along with the dinner plates My helping hands Wash along with the dinner plates My helping hands
