Being An Ass At Cutting Grass

First, you should know,
I don't own a lawnmower.
I had to borrow one
from my sister-in-law.
So I can mow 
my daughter's lawn.
Second, Cutting the lawn 
is my escape from 
my mundane honey do list
of running errands 
and household chores.
Third, I also, cut 
my sister-in-law’s lawn.
But don't get me wrong,
I have fantasies 
of mowing her lawn.
She even gave me a key 
to her shed,
so I can come and get it 
whenever I like.
Four, Now that I have her
the lawn mower.
I start mowing her lawn
from front to back. 
I’m not a tree hugger,
but look forward to
cleaning up the leaves 
in her back yard.
