High Expectations

The lush green forests
Mighty pachyderms lived in serenity
Now fields rich with grain
Where do we expect the elephant to go?

The lush green undergrowth
Beautiful leopard in harmony survived
Now black glass high rise stands
Where do we expect the leopard to go?

The lush and thick jungle
The prime habitat of the tiger
Now villages overgrown with people
Where do we expect the tiger to go?

The elephant raided homes
The leopard took the child
The tiger attacked the man
Are our expectations met?

These shy beautiful creatures
Looking for a way to live
Labelled as dangerous beasts
Are our expectations too high?


Premium Member Aftermath of a Bushfire

The wind is now a soughing sigh, 
Smoke is slowly drifting.
Devastation meets the eye. 
Home burned down,
Chimney standing.

Possums gone, fate unknown, 
Snakes are dead, birds have flown. 
Bush destroyed, and trees, devoid 
of green leaves, bare.
While all around, the empty sound 
of nothing living there.

Within the heat of raging flame
gumnut shells have broken.
The fire did its worst, yet best,
the nuts will grow and so attest 
that nature's voice has spoken.

Beneath the layer of fertile ash
Those hardy seeds remain.
Until one day they surge and push
and green once more will clothe the bush, 
as growth begins again.

Morning Glory

A stroll along  winding roads
Avenues and slopes
Bring to light the muted shades
Of  gentle sunshine glow.

Trees  a-gleam in silvery light
Their delicate leaves doth show
hues of green and pallid gold
mirror a glittering glow.

An array  of flowers colorful and  bright
Yellow and red a breathtaking sight  
Blue bells and daffodils spread 
intricate patterns along  mountain sides.

Amid the shades of green and red
Birds hop and dance with dainty steps
 skipping along a lush  green rug
as shiny feathers they   do preen

To view such beauty so rich, so rare 
Is to embrace mother nature’s love
 that transports one on fantasy  flights
and to tastes of sheer delight.
