Missiles and bullets and bombs
rain down from the sky
We absorb the jaded reports
how many injured, how many die
Life stumbles on, folks muddle through
most think the animals live in the zoo
If there’s really no limitation
Heaven is my dream destination
A place where all the best people are
The beautiful ones and our Father God
You get to meet people from all times
The greatest souls with the best minds
And all the animals who you love
That went to rainbow bridge above
The music there would be so sweet
Melodic and smooth unique of peace
I imagine the gardens so plush and green
Flowers and waterfalls clean pristine
No sadness there nor sickness at all
Everyone there happy having a ball
Last night during a peaceful sleep, I had a dream.
The dream had a prophetic message, it seems.
And I don't know what it all means.
But it released a most powerful theme.
I saw a young long legged frog
Making friends with a little puppy dog.
I saw them lovingly embracing each other
And expressing acceptance of one another.
If two different species of animals can can find unity,
Why can't civilized politicians fine hominy?
Lucy didn’t have a thing to do
So, off she went to a nearby zoo
Studying the animals, most in cages
Lucy sang her freedom’s praises
not all souls living here dwell in the light ~
animals in human form tend to bite
Bye bye butterflies with kaleidoscope wings
Floating on white air inspiring indigo dreams
Bye to blue birds who will magically migrate
Bye to deer and herds of animals who hibernate
Bye to the green leaves kissing my corneas
Tall trees dancing blue breeze I so love
Bye to summer clothes and barely there shorts
To fresh spring sunscreen and riding summer horse
Bye to the summer sun and it’s orange rays
Bye to the times and memories we made
We're under a tornado watch until 1 today
The thunder now rolls, and the clouds are gray
The rat terrier is terrified of what is to come
She can't be comforted which is glum
I wish I could help her overcome her fear
She has a place in my heart very dear
I feel some fear as well because of danger
That could be lurking, so many lives endanger
Some places had flooding from these storms
There has been tornado to form
Dear Lord, help protect us today
Don't let there be loss of life, I pray
Continue to protect animals and property
I enjoy feeling Your presence as fatherly
Amen
Ewe is a sweet, playful gifted sheep
Who seldom goes to shed to sleep.
She loves to explore all around
Doing lot of things that’ll astound.
She goes far without losing her way
She always comes back another day.
She kisses everyone with her gentle nose
She’s tame and amiable, gaining no foes.
She’s bleating in a lovely rhythmic tune
Her Baa Baa Black Sheep gives a fortune.
She learns the melody from her shepherd
Who always sings with his parrot bird.
All farm animals show her safe roads to go
Her best friends are Baa-Baa, Billy and Moo.
She’s so humble and faithful to everyone
Recognizing her shepherd as number one.
She’s too keen, loyal with strong senses
Leading her back to her flock’s fortress.
The shepherd's lot will never be an easy one.
From morning till night, his work will never be done.
Helped by a well-trained German dog, he keeps the flock
In good shape, so his physique must be like a rock.
Distinctive of his staff that helps him catch some ewe,
That had fallen in some trouble before it grew.
Always alert for thieves around are abundant,
And wild animals, he cannot act redundant.
Lone shepherds are not many, but I know of one,
He came from God on high and like Him there are none.
He distributes pure graces to all who need them.
Woe to those who ignore Him, your sorrow will stem.
The woods were quiet yesterday
I ambled through in lengthened stay
I heard no chatter, hoot or tweet
The only sound my leaden feet
Tree leaves were still, no shadows danced
No bullfrogs echoed morning chants
For in this woodland reverie
The animals were watching me
Daffodils sway gently in the warm breeze
whilst buzzing sounds the business of bees.
The birds sing for the arrival of spring -
a chorus for brighter days it will bring!
Dewy pastures of lambs pure white as snow,
frolicking gaily in play as they grow.
Trees adorn in green after winters blight
stand watchful over landscape within sight.
Hibernating animals wake from sleep
as seedlings emerge from the ground to peep.
Butterflies spread their wings under sunbeams
dancing like young lovers chasing their dreams.
Like an artists full palette of brightness,
the days are full of colour and lightness.
Spring at her most glorious in full bloom,
dispels the pallid of a winters gloom.
The time will come when the very thought of killing animals,
will be on the same moral level as murdering people.
Snow melting, icicles dripping from the eave
Hint that winter’s frigid air may soon leave,
Replaced by warm breezes from the south
In swampy bayous return the cottonmouth.
When mulberry buds are ready to burst
Buttercups turn upward like they thirst,
My lawn will glow with sweet dandelions
In nature the colors change like chameleons,
Spring flowers present as a lovely bouquet
While the hibernating animals come to play.
The meadowland beckons me for a stroll
And a newness of spirit refreshes my soul.

The sun rises saying hello,
Awaking nature from below.
Flowers begin to glisten,
Wind blows for all to listen.
The trees stand taller than before,
Leaves dance as they fall more and more.
The bright light forms shadows that highlight the ground,
Many animals search for food all around.
Grass feels the warmth and begins to grow,
The garden colors put on a show.
The sun displays the world so grand,
It spreads across the vast green land.
But then the sun begins to rest,
It is almost finished its quest.
It slowly moves out of sight,
Bringing forth the darken night.
The sleepy sun sets, nature’s beauty is hard to see,
We wait for tomorrow for another day to be.
“O Honey, the brute bear, straddles the box.”
The saxophonist stares. “Music unlocks
the stuffings out of the dread growling beast.
Bear’s tongue does round his lips. Am I his feast?”
Goldilocks laughs. Saxophonist funny
and a great storyteller. “Now the bunny!”
His daughter points gleefully at its tail.
Dad closes the box, locking both in jail.
“The animals stuff their ears with their paws.
waiting for the whale to open its jaws.
Lo! They hear the great musician and hope
that the conductor will throw them a rope.”
Golden curls bob, “You make no sense, you must
unlock the box before the waters rust!”
“Suddenly roars, a quake - the box growling,
bunny scratching…” Dad and his muse rolling.
