Best Icecap Poems


Dear Meneer
As I land,
You hold my hand
As I fall,
You stand me tall

You opened my eyes
Removed my icecap of blindness
To expose my inner core
And showed me that I’m worth so much more

As I bend,
You mould
As I cry,
You show me the how and the why

About the apeman
That added...

Studying history
tries to be objectively subjective,
at its best
when also a comparative study of Sacred Plantings and Harvests.

Not a coincidence,
unfortunately,
that when I studied Christian Church history,
we discovered a not-so-very-catholic co-arising GreatMen picture story
of historic and theological harvest,
but not necessarily ecological
because more anthropocentric objectives of Earth's history.

Yet...

[Note: You will see in the work below connections to other poems I have posted here.  Those poems are tangents to this poem that more completely tell the tale of rise, pride, hubris, fall, and reckoning. -- DT]

Treeless Avenue
So long old mountain
You are in the rear view mirror of my forgotten 
For so long my foundation, 
My future determination refuses to look back
At your crumbling avalanche
I’m now fatigued
Your roots are my withered memory
And your shelter is fatigued
Retired for another age in history
Your grey...

Angry Sun
She comes down near my head daily
releasing sharp spears on it precisely
I shout for mercy but she listens not
without compassion she tortures me

Born brown angry Sun darkened me
the blood veins are hidden beneath
my eyes refuse to see  precious world
just because of actions of angry...

Premium Member Sorrow Love Change
There is so much sorrow everywhere upon this Earth
It overwhelms Earth's beauty; it questions our own worth.

Another child lies hungry upon a mat that she calls her bed.
Another mother buries her child; another prayer is said.

Another elephant slaughtered for his tusks to hang upon a...

Premium Member Killing earth
With the icecap melting before our eyes. 

And the sea levels are starting to rise.

More land is disappearing everyday. 

Plants and wildlife are fading away. 

Drilling for oil deep in the dirt. 

Our earth is dieing because it's hurt. 

We must act NOW without delay....
