Best Geologic Time Poems

FIRST MOVEMENT (Minor Key)

Times such as these test body soul and mind
So should our thoughts be pain and dark confined
Or loosed to concentrate on brighter things
Like furry puppies, flowers and girls on swings

In this bright morning sun as I roved out
Past village houses waking to...

TRACKS THROUGH TIME

The Sand and pebbles of this stoney 
way
Once made a shore on warm Jurassic sea
High dunes in desert, by great ocean bay
Now heathland slopes and barrows that we see

These tracks between the heather fronds 
touch light
Cross pine tree hurst with gorse in blossom...

My Treasure Within

Somewhat smooth, and sort of round,
Lying here, on the ground,

Baked by the unrelenting Sun,
Ages ago, my life had begun,

I have seen rivers come, and go,
Seen glaciers, also, ebb and flow,

No one has thought much of me,
My unassuming exterior, not much to see,

Like that...

Haiku With Variations (Both Sonnet & Free Verse)

Haiku Number 2

hail rides air updrafts
raindrops crater planet's skin
your breath’s clouds, fall skies

Mother of a Winter’s Night – Shakespearian Sonnet

Her distressed sighs rise up like nascent hail,
(Tears blown to ever colder zones of sky),
Where frozen prayers...

Freedom without responsibility
Freedom without accountability
Are the causes for evil
And there lurks the devil

Freedom is a privilege
Free only with knowledge
Not a right and must be earned
It is to be learned

King shouted ‘free at last’
A whisper from the past
What prevails is abusive power and oppression
Only to have...

I open my eyes in this moment
I see electric lights without end
What a blessing taken for granted -
An oversight that I shall now mend

Let us look back in geologic time
Just the blink of an eye if you will
Back to my grandfather's time is all
He had...

Dynamic reef flexion within the restless Earth

Continental drift spelled birth
once spelled Pangaea, 
in early geologic time,
a supercontinent that incorporated 
almost all the landmasses on Earth.

While rifling through mine 
treasure trove of poems,
yours truly chanced upon 
satisfactorily worded 
geological event 
where plate tectonics wrought
subterranean violent transformation
about...

Age

Because I could not accept this Age,
It did kindly accept me.
Does this Age make you shiver?
It does, doesn't it, its true?

The geologic time that's really present,
Above all others is our era.
Now age-old is just a thing,
To get me wondering if and quiver.

I saw the Sad...
