The Pink Joey or Dwarf Pink Kangaroo Paw
when cataloged made botanists quiver.
For it's a rare native Australian plant
first found along the Margaret River.
A clumping evergreen, it loves the sun
however, it’s content to stay quite small.
And unlike the larger Kangaroo Paw
it’s a perennial that don’t grow tall.
It bristles with copious strap-shaped leaves
flaunting flowers with downy-soft pink hairs.
And its subtle scent attracts butterflies
sipping on the nectar each blossom shares.
Its velvet blooms form small kangaroo paws
each a delightful down under treasure.
And displayed in their natural setting
they bring the observer so much pleasure.
(Quatrain)
Sub-mind
The good n the bad, the left n the right,
Zombies will come, if you just drug em, smite,
The right hand of God, left, evil’s delight,
Death by pinned dolly, the evil incites,
Kadachi man pins you, by eye, just one look,
You know you will die, fish on the sharp hook,
Legends don’t lie, bone pointed, so crook,
So dies native Australian, his life surely took,
Yet faith is the answer, left brain does it like,
You don’t want the cancer, see it die, shrinking quite,
Subconscious will follow, just program it right,
You are what you are, a mighty spirit of light.
