atop lake of life...
Mulberry kisses,
spring-warm willow tree shadows...
a quivering bloom
Pleasant scent of grass
The divine power echoes
Listen with content
Crimson leaves scatter
whispers dance on cooling winds
earth sighs in slumber.
The pearls of life are
strung like green ornamentals
on the equator
waterlogged blue toes
sinking feet down into mud
river rising red
brown leaves turn to dust
scattering the forest floor
lifting to the wind
clouds dispelling life
sun kissed drops of green and blue
speckling the ground
blade of grass blowing
dewdrop slingshotted through sky
caught on angel’s wing
parched and broken earth
under bloody and cracked feet
raindrops on the toes
Butterflies abound
Violet hummingbird a-flight
Wildflowers’ sight
falling from the tree's autumn leaves paint the ground a colorful quilt.
crunching underfoot the sound of nostalgia memories of fall
red, orange, and gold a firework display of nature soon to fade away.
raked into a pile children jump and laugh with joy autumn leaves fly high.
the wind carries them like feathers in the breeze autumn leaves depart.
butterflies, then bees
lavender scent fills a breeze
wakening morning
LONELY SHADOWS CREEP
SILENTLY WITHOUT A PEEP
OVER CHASMS DEEP
Ye depend ‘pon earth,
At no time does Earth to thee,
Why O man this mirth?
It’s thy sole haven,
A lesson if ye listen,
This earth’s not for fun.
Forget thy border,
Stand not like mere beholder,
Do what’s in order.
Me, mine, thee nor thine,
To all Mother Earth’s divine,
Think what for all’s fine.
O plant seeds on earth
Ere ye do a moment’s mirth,
Think what’s for her worth.
Poor Earth’s on fire, which,
Thou art preparing to ditch,
Art thou an ostrich?
No inheritor
Thou art, nor an ancestor,
But thy child’s debtor.
So walk ‘pon earth soft,
Ye have not else to adopt,
Act, act and more oft.
If trees should bequeath
Wi-Fi, ye would plant many,
Too bad, ye must breathe.
Not a passenger
On Spaceship Earth, part of crew,
Act not a stranger.
Join Nature to paint,
O sit not aloof a saint,
Set a precedent.

Poet’s Note: April 22nd. Today is the Earth Day that reminds us: Earth’s still well its worth. Don’t ditch it for any other planet. None is half as worth as Earth. And time is running out, these Haikus desperately seem to say.
