The Tail - (Rhyme) of Us

It's May for Jacaranda trees,
We laugh in purple in the breeze...
Bulldozers bite.
 
We dare to say "HELLO" to bees
and make the toddlers laugh and sneeze...
Construction site.
 
Landscaping Nature as you please
Requires coldness - Soul's disease.
This is my fight!

As a Nature lover myself, I can appreciate the message of your poetic wealth. I'm in the building trade you see but I only build in major cities. To destroy Nature, I couldn't live with myself. - Great Piece Iolanda. Thanks for your comment on my work. Best Wishes Always, Bill

Hi Iolanda I can relate to this poem. Near where I live they are building a new highway and have uprooted lots of mature trees, It looks like a cemetery as you drive pass, very sad.

I love how you so seamlessly intertwined the imagery with the message. Well done.
