A Haiku Series - Nature
A HAIKU SERIES - NATURE
~~~~~~~
across land and sea
rays full of nurture.... wisdom
we must learn to read
man's ignorance
illiterate... natures book... left
we must learn to read
of all flora... fauna
man... the only one who thinks
irrational thoughts
we need nature
note well... it needs us not
was not always so
we lived together
hunter-gatherers... it worked
still can... wildlife knows
wildlife... instinctive
is what we humans once thought
were still blinkered... blind
heron's baiting fish
using human-made baked bread
they've got the angle
orcas hunting
together... using waves
decisive actions
wildlife reads seasons
some... following the sun
learnt to read the rays
we humans do too
follow the sun... holidays
abusing nature
life once did go on
now natures failing... forlorn
ignored... all life dies
