when mining ended in the pit,
a path was made encircling it,

and near the path, a fence was strung,
and soon all kinds of plant life hung…

…upon the wire, all around–
now, even wild hops are found;

there are berries, plums, and apples, too–
all hanging there for me and you!

I walked up on the old mine dump

and found clover here and there,

and army worms up in the trees,

and flowers everywhere.
