Close Encounter With Humankind Pt2

The three coyotes 
Watched this all unfold
Waiting for Sam to disappear

They knew they had a half 
An hour 
Before the OSP would appear

They pounced on Maria
Snarling hungry scarfing her 
Drinking up her fresh blood

Ripping her Up for dinner,
Enjoying their unexpected 
venison feast.

Jason the head coyote,
told the others 

“Well, Sam might be a good guy,
For a human.
Tried to do the right thing,

But he killed her 
And she died 
For us to enjoy dinner.

Such is the way
Of the world
My brothers.

But he did us a favor
Maria is fresh meat
And we will feast well 
Tonight, my brothers.

We will eat her up
But leave some 
For our brothers,

The vultures,
Who are circling above 
Patiently waiting 
Their turn to have dinner.”

The OSP came 
In due course
Saw the vultures
Finishing their dinner
Chased them off

Heard the contended  coyotes
Howling at the moon

They called Sam Adams up
Said there was nothing 
They could do
But let nature 
Take its course.

Thus ended Maria’s 
Close encounter
With humankind.

Gratitude For Gratis Favours

From the bottom of my heart
I thank you honey bee
for all that liquid gold
that's bought and sold
Your precious honey from your tiny womb
Yes God bless thy fine honeycomb.
But sorry for stealing
your liquid of healing!

And thankyou baa baa bleating sheep
for your warming fluffy wool
The cold makes the babies weep
and they could die of the cool.

Mother hen to you thankyou
for protein packed trays of gratis eggs
and forgive me, for delicious drumstick legs!

And mooing cows sorry for taking
your calf's milk we too love drinking
for cakes have to be baking

Ah, and apologies for loving those tasty fish fillets
Coated and fried in those fine sizzling  skillets

And thankyou little silkworm
Silken dresses have been the norm

Deers thankyou for musk, and venison for the meal
Apologies to calves for partaking of their veal.

Ah thankyou God for all that food
If we thank Him not we're ingrates rude.

Premium Member Thanksgiving

Treasures and passages, peaceful as land, sky, and sea
Heartland of hope, harvesters and helpful hands
Abundance shows America as plateau of plenty
Natives in November remembers, family came first
Kindness swells, like tidal rhythm of breath across this land
Sacred words are heard, a symbol of gratitude and caring
Generations grace the day with family, and friends as guests
Indigenous folks can never forget... extending help
Visions of brighter days, of venison and veggies are stored 
I learned of Thanksgiving, migrating to America's welcoming shore
Now is reminder; shall I thank ancestors, or Source above
Gratitude reigns for all, one nation under God.

Premium Member Love Hate

Love & Hate

Hate never defeats hate
We shall therefore never hate
Nor hate the haters
Mans destiny is to be flawed
I am flawed
Very flawed
I cry out for peace
I feel the pain of every suffering child
yet
	yet
		yet

They say have no hate
	Love thy enemy

So I must love
	Love is the Lennon way
		Give a peace of the bullet a chance
			Love is dead
Imagine that

Never the less, I try
	Flawed as I might be
		So I love	
			
As a lover should
I embrace my love in the wrapped shroud of peace
I kiss my love
I shall list my loves

I would love to see Trump die
I would love to see Hillary poked in the eye
I would live to see Saudi Arabia disappear
I would love to see Isis naked and suffering in fear
I would love to see Putin in a box
I would love to see the ayatollah eaten by a fox
I would love to see Erdogan receive his own medicine
Served by traitors as boiled venison

I would love to see assaulter's assaulted
Love is so great let’s love to death all Stalinist Trumps

By their evil deeds and greedy ways
Let’s send them bullets that say "loves the way"

I would love to amend the second amendment
But not before I shot all the NRA
For I believe in love and therefore they can not stay!!!

Premium Member The Scavenger Survivor

I'm a carnivore who craves the taste of meat
and yet, I can't kill anything. It just isn't within me.
Until now, all of my protein has been provided in great variety,
all pre slaughtered and butchered and preserved nicely,
at the supermarket in my neighborhood locally.
Modern technology has desensitized me.
As I now forage in the forest, I come upon the carcass of a doe's body
most likely taken down by a grizzly.
It's been days now since I've consumed any meat.
My hunger grows stronger. I'm getting dizzy and weak
but I must be careful. I must stay aware.
Close by may be a snoozing grizzly bear.
I scan my surroundings and all appears clear.
Quickly, I butcher off a shank of the now deceased deer
then run off into the forest and disappear.
I relish in what I've scavenged as I consume the venison.
Tomorrow I will venture out to scavenge again.
I only hope that I'm not the one who ends up being eaten.

Premium Member The Girl Who Became Queen

Long ago
In a far away land
With stags in the glens
Salmon leaping so grand
 
This ancient Kingdom
With its lonely King
Longs for a maiden
To make his heart ring
 
No crusades
No battles no wars
His reason-ability
What do we want to fight for
 
The only war he faces
Is raging in his heart
To seek his chosen maiden
For his life to start
 
With his entourage they travel
To tour his Kingdom so
Through heather bloomed glens
Over mountains graced with snow
 
Many miles they have travelled
All in need of rest
Up ahead in the distance
A manse house, we're timely blessed
 
On the door his footman knocks
As it opens with a creak
What can i do for you
Bow, its your King your about to greet
 
They settle down for supper
Roast hog and venison pie
The King enjoying their welcome
Twas not the food that caught his eye
 
The Laird of this estate
Had two daughters, lovely named
Carolyn and Lorna
Blond haired and red head flamed
 
The one that made him smile
Was the way she looked at him
This blond haired gorgeous beauty
All curvy shaped and thin
 
With the politeness of a King
Would you like to walk with me
As they strolled around her garden
Talking of all that they could see
 
They talked of ancient mariners
The roamers of the seas
Adventurers, they would seek
To show new worlds to see
 
En captured by her knowledge
Her smile, long blond hair
Is it the politeness of a King
To be in awe and sit and stare
 
They head back to the manse
To retire for the night
Both lying awake in thought
Something here, clicked tonight
 
Now many months have passed
Visitations to and fro
The King to her dads estate
This blond to his castle so
 
Then on one sunny day
As they rode through his Kingdom's glens
Enjoying this place of beauty
In his cloak, some thing full of gems
 
In the presence of his lands
The King goes on one knee
My dear darling Carolyn
Will you marry me
 
Yes my darling King
I will marry you
Today we are engaged
Tomorrow, this precious join of two
 
They head back to his castle
Through his glens and rivers of blue 
For on their day of marriage
The Kings heart at peace and true

Premium Member Wild Country Abundance

Wild as ivy vines climbing up pines, 
in the outskirts of nature 
where mountain lions purr,
my lungs expand like the open land.
Breathing in peace, as rippling as a creek,
watching an eagle snatch up salmon,
I witness the cycle of life: unkind but providing.
Abiding upon a log bench, quenched
with dampened sun, dappled by branch shadows, 
trickled with yesterday's torrential rain drench,
I bathe in thankfulness for abundance.
Smoked venison smothered with forged morels
satisfies my wild senses, with plenty to share. 
Cares become lost in uncharted territory,
flung to the wild winds, blown like dust
settling upon lawn-like leaves
where fungi's forestry teeth eat them like treats.

Forest Fire

Forest fire engulfs a fleeing deer 
Ignited by some John Doe. 
Raging heat turning deer to venison 
Engulfing  the innocents to die.  

Nature as no defence when fire comes to call 
tree or creature doomed to be turned into charcoal .
At man's command acres burnt,  life extinguished
Nature wounded facing an uncertain crossroads

Fire and flames respect no borders 
Buildings burning, barns engulfed 
Created by nature  or man made matters not.
blazing  backwoods  encompassed

And just for the sake of a barbecue ember 
or the smouldering butt of a smoke.

A Bloody Conversation

"Nice to see you again", said
Mosquito to the Blue-bottled Fly
"I see you are well-fed"
"Thank you", replied the latter. "I
Returned recently from a big meeting"
" What meeting? The CONFAB?"
"Yes. What a bout of feasting!
There was so much blood on the slab!"
Softly stroking his proboscis, Mosquito said: "I don't know about you
But I prefer blood that comprises
Vitamins and nutrients, fresh and new." Patting his robust belly, Fly asked: "Where can I get such?
Would that mean waking up early?" "Yes", replied the other. "Pretty much.
Just stick with me, I'll show you the difference
You are yet to see
Human blood is a whole new experience!" "Thanks for the offer, but
I'll stick to the butcher's venison. With him, I have an honest cut
Human blood is sacred - that's a reason!"
And with that, Fly flew away
"Potbellied fool! Who better than myself
Knows its value? I'll go on my way
And let him find out for himself!"

Premium Member The Highlanders Estate

My door is open
I welcome you
To my Highland lands
Off heathers and hue
 
Cross the bridge
Of centuries old
To my castle of grey
In it's regal fold
 
Stand with me
In the great hall of my past
Like generations
Us Fraser's will last
 
Climb spiral stairs
To a turreted tower
Look out on my lands
As the northern lights shower
 
Turn to the left
Look out to the fields
They stretch for miles
Many harvests they yield
 
The moat leads off
Into a river so pure
With it's salmon ladder
Caught to mature
 
Lets take to the horses
To forests of pine
They carpet the glens
In greenery fine
 
Centuries old
Camp fire and cheer
Weeks away
Chasing the deer
 
The welcome we received
When we reached home
Venison and pheasant
From our Highland roam
 
Off the great hall
To the room of the past
Where tartans and paintings
My ancestral past
 
Open great fireplace
Lights up the room
Claymores and armour
In past battles bloom
 
The evening draws
Arrival of guests
To feast on the roam
For the food we are blessed
 
Midnight approaches
Bedtime retire for all
As i look out my window
In awe at it all
