Summertime is a sweet song in my heart
Giving me a harmonious boost in June
With brilliant sunshine and hot, hot days,
I go about singing a lovely melodious tune
While the birds join me with an obbligato
The newly leaved trees sway to keep time
Nature’s sounds are an orchestral symphony,
I am bubbling over with exuberant rhyme
Each new day brings a chorus of singing
Rhapsodies are surrounding me, it seems,
Sudden storms are the booming percussion
Night sounds of insects accompany dreams,
My heart is filled with awesome discoveries
New tunes composed as I enjoy my days
Filled with optimism and hope for a future
Of peace and goodwill for everyone…always.

soprano's ringing
melody with soaring
obbligato overtones,
while diva gets rousing applause
supportive alto smiles demurely
knowing it takes ensemble of voices.

FUNGI
You came as a miracle from
universe to earth from
a universe to earth
First:
we called you what?
Whatever until you told us better
was instilled inside our medulla obbligato –
though you favored our brain,
looked like a medulla obbligato.
Mushrooms only communicates with roots tentacles and spores;
Mushroom you bring good news for those whom pay attention.
Fungi spores high fly.
Underneath the ground we are surrounded.
By the communication of energy exchange.
Kai told me of your plans
As she was tuned in to your frequency.
Kai, mushrooms -mushrooms, Kai- synonymous.
That humongous world of Mycelium.
her gift was interpreting their silent message.
I think of you with every mushroom, seen,
mentioned or thought of.
I think of you with every new break through,
“Kai Kachelle now means mushroom intelligence”.
Fungi spore carry a universal messenger.

THE DEATH OF TRUE BEAUTY
Nothing can climb without falling
But the dynamic seems to be descent
Industriousness out shouted natures calling
Now I can’t find where nature went
How many times has that bell tolled?
The ringing sounds just like a telephone
Recipients, ones who are the bought and sold
Buy and sell beyond flesh and bone
The pandemic of humanity
The ugliest of vanity
A city is just another word for insanity
I had forgotten the sound of beauty
Of the wind strumming the trees
I long to soak in the obbligato
Of a world before an ear could hear

Open mouths of violins,
soothing vocal chords.
