The Trees Lament
The roots do not grow alone. They twist in the dark, searching for each other, feeding off the same dirt, the same rain-soaked silence like we do. Quiet and craving. The trunk is not proud because it stands tall. It is proud because it holds the weight. Cracked and groaning under years of storms. It never breaks,...

You’re in the garden, playing ball with Pippa In half an hour you’ll have your evening meal The green of grass is glowing slightly deeper I’m playing solitaire and thinking if you feel Same as I am, before I press the phone sign After three rings I interrupt the call You’re calling back, and so we are online How was your day,...

A tsunami of black ash blankets half a world Trash toadstool hoodoos, wastelandic pillage and pollutant mucus ravishes lava villages Draining is the amalgam mass at the end of the spectrum Stone environs shock, unnatural landscapes Polyethylene islands flushing the canvas Carbon contaminant fumes flair in mid drift air Virtually no place on Earth is free of the polymer fog Foaming magma...

Visibility is low, wear a bright vest, Cycle with lights on, caution is best. Stay on the bike path across the Tappan Zee The Hudson's below, but you can't see You can't see the water, the fog is like a wall It might be a blanket, it might be a pall You peer through glasses...

Premium Member Whispering trees
Listening through the surrounding trees. Sound of whispers heard from a slight breeze. Cries heard in the distance, as the breeze comforts The leaves. Words joined together while starting to hear, how the leaves Fear the airs no-more clear, feeling for the leaves as-if nobody believes. In a still small voice it whistles an sings. The song of hope lies within the trees, as the...

To my envy the trees told me
Flammable I’m nor dry tinder, Scare me nor threaten of lightning, Past autumn and chilly winter, I look forward to the next spring. I’m already left with few leaves, Let worst of autumn’s fall arrive, Go not by my dry woody frame, The tree in me is all alive. What if covered I’m with this frost, Just around the corner is sun, I...

Premium Member I couldn't see her forest for her trees
I couldn't see her forest for her trees. I couldn't see her knickers for her knees. I couldn't see the lightening of her thunder, No! Nothing of her top and nothing from down under ~ though I pleaded with her to show it to me ~ please!...

Dawn of the spring
Lovely, windy breeze goes round and round, bringing us the thought of joy... Silver rays of the shining sun, kissing our joyful faces and sharing the beauty of the day... Giant tree men bow to all of us, shaking their colorful tree heads... Bloomed charming flowers smile with us, whispering the secret of love... What a precious moment... " Oh, look at those seagulls, they...
