¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ I loved you.
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦

I gave you ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
bed of earth, blanket of blue air--

As I get further away ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦
I see ¦¦¦ more clearly.
¦¦¦¦ souls should have been immense ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦
not what they are,
¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦

I gave you ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
blue of the spring morning,
¦¦¦¦ you didn't know ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
you wanted more, the one gift
reserved for another ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦

¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦
you will ¦¦¦ find ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ in the garden,
among the growing plants.
¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦

¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ the bird's flight
¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
which begins ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ echoing
¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ from the white birch
to the apple tree.


(Blackout of Retreating Wind by Louise Gluck)


Premium MemberGifts from Nature



Earth’s soil births an amazing range of plants
whose blooms enhance environments and lives
with colors, shapes, and fragrance. Just a glance
at flowers makes us smile on Sunday drives.

Two special beauties I have long enjoyed,
tulips and honeysuckle, bloom in spring.
The climbing honeysuckle fills a void
and lightly scents the air each place it clings.

The tulips compensate for being free
of scent. Their unique shape and hardy blooms
of varied colors, a delight to see,
embellish many gardens, yards, and rooms.

Premium MemberBENEATH THE CANOPY

soft dawn awakens forest air  
the hush of morning everywhere  
old pines remember what we’ve lost 
roots hold truths untouched by the frost  

above them, plants grow in splendor
what we’ve lost old pines remember
the river hums its ancient tune
a silver thread beneath the moon 

silent songs come from silver tongues 
its ancient tune the river hums 
beneath, the melody prolongs
from silver tongues come silent songs

bush and heath, give a cooling sheath 
the melody prolongs, beneath
through shifting light on leaf and bough 
the earth still keeps its patient vow

Premium MemberThe Pond Ducks

             I love the ducks       
       on the pond in the park
drifting along      paddling their webbed feet.
     Dappling ducks    feeding in the shallow water,
         on aquatic plants, small fish and insects. 
 Amazing how the ducklings swim right after birth.

Premium MemberMother Nature's Football Game

I heard Mother Nature say,
"Let's play football today".
Plants versus animals - the teams were picked. 
Would the flora all be licked?
The thunder and lightning of the crowd
cheered them on, sounding loud. 
While the fauna moved the ball, 
barking out every call,
the flora didn't make a sound...
yet they held their ground. 
Unnoticed, there among us, 
stood the unseen fungus.


Premium MemberSpring Rain and Nature’s Renewal

"Sunshine's rousing cheers echo the day in as clouds move made anew." Quote by poet 

Rain is coming, and the sky is gray.
Staring out the window while nature is waiting
For the welcoming rain this season of May.

The first drops fall, earthly petrichor weighing
In palms, hooking to surface of plants and dry soil.
Like bubbles, falling droplets are captivating.

Stunning with strokes of raindrops enhancing the soil.
Flowers, a vibrant ambience, rousing the day.
Climbing old stones, vines adorn that weave and coil.

Once clouds have purged, air is fresh, and sun rays spray. 
Refreshing rain rests upon the earth's breast; 
Blue jays, red cardinals, and hummingbirds play.

Days chuckle; plump latent seedbeds nest.
While frisky squirrels bound across seeds that rest.

Premium MemberLet The Butterflies Come

Onyx clouds of failed love 
Floating away in sunburned horizon 

Ribbons of light
Rainbows so bright
Gently inspire new views

Gone are acid rain puddles
Of teal toxicity 
And neon narcissism 

As new refreshing love
Like warm white water is welcomed 

Flowing from sky into 
My life like baptizing hearts
And hydrating larks in the bird bath
Love from Mother Nature 
Encourages cycle of life
For plants and all creatures 

Just beyond a snowlike field of dandelions 
a green caterpillar munches on leaves
Could be its dreams fill his belly 
sprouting wings with which it will fly
Much like dreams of romance 
creating butterflies in my belly
Filling my soul with gold hope…
let the butterflies come

Premium MemberJackets of Ice

Mother Nature dressed bushes and trees with jackets of ice overnight
Morning arrived as sun shined through like glass in the light
The landscape was so luring and magical to see
All the plants standing on winter's stage eloquently
I thought of all the musicians, what they bring to us all
When their lyrics express pain we feel as we fall
Their courage to sing truth, that maybe we can't speak
Singing on that stage, erasing all that seems so bleak
As I walked on winter's path, ice melted, dripped its tears bare
The healing had begun with jackets off, nothing could compare
I know those brave musicians helped more than they could know
Just as mother nature can create such a dazzling show!

Premium MemberOne Side of the Story

Adored by all the plants and trees,
but forsaken by his wife,
he loved the sound of a gentle breeze,
and gave the grasses life.
When she said, "time to mow the lawn",
he knew which side that he was on.

Premium MemberHalf Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall

 
"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree." Emily Bronte
I wish the summer would last forever. But it is half past summer already. Some parts of my garden are decaying. But there is still beauty in those withered plants. I pause to contemplate. Yes, divine will be the colours of fall. The red, yellow, and orange leaves will be dancing. Just two months till fall, and I am dreaming of the sublime.

Premium MemberRainy day

Thunder roars like a passing train
Skies open it begins to rain
Rain drops on leaves of the tree
Sparkling crystals the eyes can see

Dark clouds pass quickly by
Sun peaks out high in the sky
Soil is wet, plants start to grow
On the horizon a beautiful rainbow
