Mick Talbot Poet Haiku

Haikai - a Micro Anthology - Australia

wild Australia
hark... sounds of didgeridoos
mobs of kangaroo

Australian folk...
Aboriginals suffer
arpartied still reigns...

Australian folk...
at one with nature... what's left
arpartied still reigns...

vistas of nature
o that monolith could talk
Australian woes

deforestation
all life suffers pollution
koala's left dead

crocodiles... wildlife
Australia's indigenous
extinctions for real

CayCay Godwin March 23, 2018 at 7:08 PM Australia / South Africa. Why must the world continue as always with ignorant behavior? Rhetorical question, sad question, sad that it needs to be posed. Your Haiku's are well done, truly - and your points well made. I am sure this will be on my mind for quite some time. Poetry hugs ... CayCay Mick Talbot March 23, 2018 at 9:15 PM Thanks CayCay, for your appreciation its reciprocated. Poetry hugs* Mick... An expression I've not come across before, like it lots '-)

Tom Cunningham March 23, 2018 at 5:24 PM Wow ,didn't know things were that bad. Tom Mick Talbot March 23, 2018 at 9:08 PM How the first British immigrants treated the Aborigines is a horror story in itself. The fact that they are still discriminated against is true, yet governments, the British included, seem to be denial. Of course the Australian are in total denial. ?

Arturo Michael March 23, 2018 at 5:15 PM Very informative poem...A reality not seen openly...Nice one...All the best Mick Mick Talbot March 23, 2018 at 8:55 PM Arturo, thank you! I hasten to add that, albeit I am not fully conversant with the Native Americans endeavors to get the USA's government to uphold/abide by treaties relating to N.A. land, I am aware that the fight goes on... Take care... Mi
