Neglect
Down by the reservoir of dreams
Waters reflect subconscious streams
The lake’s mirror a mosaic
Wishful well versed and prosaic
Droplets of pain dissolve on touch
Always to soothe never to judge
Up in the sky eagles hold sway
Kindle sweet lullaby’s soiree
Send prayers for tomorrow’s prey
Tuck their wingspan and portray
Freedom bold faith and clear vision
Succinct guidance and precision
Blind underground earthworms dig deep
Sift soil blindfolded into a heap
Caress compost while they quietly roam
Embrace their mission to turn over loam
A labyrinth of tunnels and passage
An amazing maze and direct message
Just the like the waterfall and the kestrel
The little creeper points to orchestral
Symbiosis which we should protect
Treat nature and planet with due respect
Often though we are quite spineless creatures
As birds and invertebrates teach us
