Notes About The Poem

 A BEAUTIFUL WARM CANVASSING DAY

 

In the East, golden dawn

Spread throughout the forest;

Tree branch-bound birds began

To orchestrate morning tweets:-

 

Meanwhile, on the window screen,

Various insects were crawling,

While rats and other small creatures

Ran in an out of the green hedges:-

 

In the later morning and towards noon,

Squirrels played and gathered nuts;

And there were ducks and frogs

Quietly gathered in around a beautiful lake:-

 

The high-risen sun heated the air,

And tall green trees shared their shade;

And across the street, a human made

Waterfall-fountain, reflected the sky:-

 

Just look at this beautiful canvassing

That we should be enjoying in blessed life,

Rather than the heat of collateral fire bombings,

Bigotry, waning democracy, equity, peace and love:-

 

What a way God has in using nature to navigate

We humans towards what it is that human nature

Must and need to be politically cultivating each day,

To reap fruits of beautiful warm days of peace and love:-

 

A BEAUTYFUL WARM CANVASSING DAY

A BEAUTIFUL WARM CANVASSING DAY

In the East, golden dawn
Spread throughout the forest;
Tree branch-bound birds began
To orchestrate morning tweets:-

Meanwhile, on the window screen,
Various insects were crawling,
While rats and other small creatures
Ran in an out of the green hedges:-

In the later morning and towards noon,
Squirrels played and gathered nuts;
And there were ducks and frogs
Quietly gathered in around a beautiful lake:-

The high-risen sun heated the air,
And tall green trees shared their shade;
And across the street, a human made
Waterfall-fountain, reflected the sky:-

Just look at this beautiful canvassing
That we should be enjoying in blessed life,
Rather than the heat of collateral fire bombings,
Bigotry, waning democracy, equity, peace and love:-

What a way God has in using nature to navigate
We humans towards what it is that human nature
Must and need to be politically cultivating each day,
To reap fruits of beautiful warm days of peace and love:-
