Premium Member Charles Darwin Limerick

For five years the illustrious and regal
Charles Darwin, sailed on the Beagle.
A surveying ship,
Notebooks all a’rip,
Soon in battle with Wallace, so legal.

Premium Member Charles Darwin

Great Britain’s famous Charles Darwin -
On biology he put a new spin.
Like Lincoln, born the exact same year, month and day;
both hated slavery and are well-remembered, by the way.

Premium Member Orchid Is One of a Kind

orchid has fascinated scientists
Charles Darwin wrote her up in a book in 1862
She is a complex flower, who has evolved
achieving self-pollination and cross-pollination

Delicate, aromatic and pretty.
She adapts her color shape and odor
Prefers to attract male insects
because she is a female?

Premium Member Love All Creatures

Today’s blessing comes from Charles Darwin
who expressed it far better than I can….
when he said:
The love of all living creatures
is the most noble attribute of man….

And if I may speak for Mr. Darwin
who knew as we’ve evolved he would be remiss
If he didn’t add women and LGBTQIA+ people to that list.

Premium Member Love All Creatures the Sequel

Yesterday’s blessing came from Charles Darwin
who, you may remember, expressed it far better than I can….
when he said:
The love of all living creatures
is the most noble attribute of man….

And I spoke for Mr. Darwin
when I said knew through evolution he would be remiss
If he didn’t add women and LGBTQIA+ people to that list.

I didn’t add this to yesterday’s blessing
because I didn’t think I needed to…
but I fear some people have forgotten…
how we are creatures too.
