Dwarf Giant of the MedListen up, y'all, got a tale to tell
'Bout an elephant that time almost forgot
Not your average jumbo, this one's special as hell
Sicily's very own pint-sized lot
Evolved on an island, cut off from the rest
Shrunk down...

Fantasy’s alchemy rises
In words
Like black velvet from loam rich earth
A bouquet -
Birthed
In ballads and barcarolles –
Grows
From stolen spells and visions
The Snowthorn

Tiny TroopersMarching in line, six legs on the ground,
These mini-soldiers do not make a sound.
Nature's army, tough as can be,
Fighting for the queen and colony.
Antennae twitching, always alert,
Ready for battle in leaves and dirt.
No fear, no...

Sunderbans SpeaksGreen meets blue, land kisses sea,
Mangrove maze, wild and free.
Tigers prowl, deer leap light,
Nature's dance, day and night.
Muddy banks, roots reach high,
Crocs snap, birds paint the sky.
Salt and fresh, waters blend,
Life begins, life will end.

nature communiontender zephyr tempts
maple leaves stretch their arms wide ---
blossoms design beds
Twigs and branches chat
chirping birds search their mates
squirrel kits giggle

rainbows stroke the butterflies ---
drops moist the parched earth

Peek-A-BooA shy sun
plays peek-a-boo
with clouds
clogging the sky
and barring its path.
Dyed in shades

they gather
like sheep,
clustering

grazing on blue skies
until melancholy
grey
drips droplets of rain....

THE BUMBLE BEEHe flies towards the fragrance of foxglove
Before then buzzing round the borage blue.
Seems bumble bee enjoys the fine fragrance.
But what does he really want from each bloom?
The sweet delight there waits for him to eat.

Light White CloudsOn summer grass
freshly cut
I lay relaxing looking up at the
subtle slovenly shape shifter
floating above
It steals my mind
and the world disappears
slowly changing
sneaking by
forming frothy bubbles
Candy floss fluff
A carving of mashed potato
Animals and faces
high in the sky

Music of Dew's Embrace
in the morning, before silence is pierced by voices,
before words take form and erase the quietude,
the hesitant stillness fading into the soft, clear dawn
dew trembling on the edges of petals,
gentle as the moonlight who...
