MOTHER EARTH’S PRAYER

The mountains so majestic
Looming in the sky
Cannot speak out loud

The lions roar
To let you know
That their growing pride is proud

The Dolphins jump and play
That’s their way
If you are in a boat you can see

The insects pollinate
At their own rate
Busily buzzing like a bee

The ocean waves splashing hard
Upon the vast beach shore

The volcanos spit out lava
Oozing it from their fiery core

The Elephants noisily trumpet
To make us all aware

The eagle soars
On outstretched wings
Way high up in the air

The peacock shows you his colorful display
By his feathers bright

The owl hoots and hollers
Under a crisp full moonlight

The trees gently sway
Showing you the way
To a better day

The rooster too
With a cock-a-doodle doo
Alarming as he struts and sashays

All of these things
That Mother Nature brings
Just means she’s trying to say

“With so much wonder to fill your day”

“Why throw it all away?”

“There must be a better way”

“To spend your stay”

“We have gone too far astray”

“Stop the Pollution!”

“We need a Solution!”

“On this all day”

“I pray”

FINE MAIDEN

Thou doth teareth

Fine maiden

Tis is true

But remembereth

In all posterity

The damsel scorned

Shall shucketh like corn

The tapestries of her suitor

And knighteth the new conqueror

To her most royal ambitions

Nay aspirations!

Which shall more properly suiteth

Her reverance

And presently her

Constitution

LAUGHTER THE BEST MEDICINE

photo of women laughing and dressed in hijabs sitting next to each other

To fathom the disagreeable

I’ve discerned

Is to not let your hostilities

Blow up much too rash

For life has it’s many

Incongruities

That hide in plain sight

Like a cat poised to strike

In the high grass

When tempests are testing your

Infallibility

To go on

Without unleashing

A personal blast

Use your wit

I submit

It’s in your ability

To have your esteem

Still pristine

Without all the sass

Everyone of us has our own

Perfect halo

That is soiled

By acts

We cannot take away

We move on with a smile

And go the extra mile

And with that

I’d like to wish

Everyone

A Good Day!

MOSQUITO

Smaller than the nail on my finger

She observes from way up high

When she sees her opportunity

She never fails to suck you dry

She lives to dine amongst the poor

Whilst also partaking of the rich

She’s no discriminator

This witch

Will leave you with an itch

The most deadliest of species

She arrives when things get hot

The only way to stop her

Is with a sudden and forceful

SWAT!

TIME

If yesterday is gone

And tomorrow yet awaits

Then is today just an illusion

A cosmic holograph protrusion

In time and space

My mind creates

If all my memories are recalled

From past and different times

Is it me that I am thinking of

Or of someone who occupied my mind

If in the future I have plans to fix

These obstacles that are in my midst

How can I in the here and now

When tomorrow does not yet exist

If now is everchanging

Steadily sweeping future into the past

Then is time just but an illusion

And I an actor in it’s cast

 

TIME

If yesterday is gone
And tomorrow yet awaits
 
Then is today just an illusion

A cosmic holograph projecting protrusion
 
In time and space
 
My mind creates
 
If all my memories are recalled
 
From past and different times
 
Is it me that I am thinking of
 
Or of someone who occupied my mind
 
If in the future I have plans to fix
 
These obstacles that are in my midst
 
How can I in the here and now
 
When tomorrow does not yet exist
 
If now is ever-changing
 
Steadily sweeping future into the past
 
Then is time just but an illusion
 
And I an actor in it's cast
