Fresh Air to sooth our lungs.

     And by the strength of its teeth,

as it supplies us with our life source
and all humans need to enforce
that Mother Nature is our only resource

when the woods ran out of trees

no thought to give in

and after a spin

were soon modeling dickies.

delightful palm oil

Creatures

Creatures

Geckos far cry about 
Geckos close hide about
Unknown creatures veiled by sight 
Not the sense of hearing 
With-out worry of discovery.

Fern

No greater shadow than ferns teeth
Sheltering the infant saplings underneath,
The same soil where strangling vines sleep
What the forest grows, also reaps

Where Sometimes Through

Jaguar might!
     Jaguar night!
     Eyes in front:
     Kill is swift.
     Leaf slight rustle,
     Mud impressed.
     Noiseless quiet;
     Distant glimpse.

Digging Our Destruction

We keep on digging up our planet 
because we keep on breeding on our granite  
as our planet is been dug up for profit
 but it is profit, that is destroying our planet

Queen of the rainforest
Quaffed in neon or gold
Quick to zoom through jungles
Quivering calls for mates
Quiet, shy, dancing tails
Quirky nests in treetops

Tired waters push their way through rocks
rocks hugged by rotting ivy's green
green surrounds the wild forest's stream,
stream flows calm, through places unknown...

Premium Member INFESTED RAINFOREST--

The board isn't straight because of the termites, ....Whose laser has melted likened ice, melts to water
....Crooked, is the board that has troubled the rain....

JAGUAR

Jump, climb, chase, and growl
A feline menace is on the prowl
Giant cats that sleep in trees
Unleashed, they just want to be free 
A coat of many tricolored dots
Roaming the forest where it gets hot
