in hindsight i now live the past and present simultaneously.

"I did not know how",
was never the best to start,
today I scratch my brow,
looking at grass grow apart.

I did not water the plants,
I carelessly overlooked Nature's deeds,
while you cared for my wants,
while you took attention to my needs.

"now that I know more",
I know knowing now will never restore,
this is only fair retribution,
as I peek up to adore,
and to celebrate your tree's fruition.
toujours.
