Mother Nature - Domestic Goddess

Mother Nature – Domestic Goddess Mother Nature – domestic goddess Hides miracles in her pockets ~ Tomatoes on exit ramps – highway largess - Grow tranquil – neon red as flaming rockets. Traipsing down the empty city sidewalks Scatters vows of floral abundance Wriggling through tight cracks with tall stalks Coquette twirls around in daisy dances. On vacation in windswept dry oceans She blows a kiss of sunflower seeds – Black-eyed Susans fed with her love potion To flourish in sunburned soil of need. Miracles – Mother Nature’s perpetuation She laughs with whimsy’s propagation. I have witnessed all three examples in this poem. The tomatoes on an LA freeway exit ramp, daisies coming up in our sidewalk and Black-eyed Susans growing wild along highways and deserts in the western United States. 8-12-20 Nature Rhyme Sponsor: Brenda Chiri
