The Cabbage Patch



The Cabbage Patch
By R.e. Taylor

She was well into her thirties
Never been married
Never even been on a date
Ever since she turned sixteen
She wandered around the cabbage patch
Looking under every leaf
She listens carefully
Trying to hear a baby’s cry
But the only sounds she ever hears
Are her tears falling to the ground
As she realizes that she is all alone
And she always will be
