a truck was pulling out of the rec centre this morning
on the side in large letters was printed
"strathroy turf farm"
oh! what a dream!
a thousand acres of lawn
and nothing else
lush and thick and emerald
under a blue clear bowl of sky
children in bright colours run with wild joy
carrying pails and baseball bats and dolls
shrieking, bare-footed
moving always towards the
infinite blue green horizon
