I Told You I’d Be Back


EARTH DAY. 21 APRIL 2021

~

~~~

Winter gives his last snowy brilliance

Decorating the Spring green in soft white fluff

Flocking the land for a final ‘I told you I’d be back’

~

Sun and blue fill the morning in golden radiance

Glittering the land in a last push of winter’s silver shiver

The melt is here ready to give moist to the cold land

~

Spring’s lust will not be denied for her bounty to rise

She will seed it, birth it hard to give her green to the Sun

To color the earth with each step of Persephone

~

Winter gives his last glorious hooray and goodbye

The season has declared herself in the days longer

The land softening, opening to the call. She’s back

NATURE WINS !


23 April 2019

~

Some poems are a ramble… Like this one. Sat down and this is what I got.

~~~~~

Nature is persistent in the way She gives

There is not a moment when the giving stops

Not a moment when Nature is ceaselessly

recalibrating where she will unleash Her elements

to make beauty or lay mayhem.

If the Sun isn’t shining here, it is somewhere else

If it’s raining here, it isn’t somewhere else

A draught means there is a flood, somewhere else

And endless conspire to do as She pleases.

Displaying Her might and sovereignty

wherever she Will.

There is no fooling Nature, 

There is no controlling Nature.

There often is no rhyme or reason

Nature does not need us to thrive

She privileges us with her allowance

in tolerating our insipid taking

from her with giving little if any

return.  

Nature Wins

We are a dis-ease on her

May we learn to ceaselessly

honor her before she does

a back flip and we’re gone

Nature wins

Earth Day and The MilkyWay


Day 21… napowrimo… a day late…LOL

earth white

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Earth wins in her natures

There is no crowding her

No boxing her in one way

or another

 

One day is not just hers

In the declaration of it

All Days are hers in

the facts of it

 

That Hallmark way of

Proclamation wants for

remembrance in a rush

of printed trees

 

And explicative on the

glory of recycled paper

and non-toxic inks

as some of us

 

Dance the tribal dance

of Earth wellness and

chant for the healing rains

and the end

 

To all that tarnishes

And rapes the beauty

And wonder of this Earth

that will always win

 

She makes generous

Our living on her in her seasons

She give us tremble and rage

because it is

 

How her nature needs

For her beginnings and endings

Her thrive in spite of us

Her thrive for

 

The Love of us who take

Forgetting the giving back

For it is in the giving

that all is received

 

For all the planets in perfect

Sync make sure of this

She is of their family

The MilkyWay wins

EARTH DAY.. AS ABOVE SO BELOW


Earth day…  

 

AS ABOVE SO BELOW

 

She tells me she is evolving

Unfolding herself unto herself

Part of a galactic mystery of orbiting

spheres connected, pulsing together

One body, like heart and lungs

and brain and bone all connected

As above 

so below

 

A Milky Way of celestial syncopation 

One in health for the others in the Being

of a body breathing, and hearing and

smelling, and tasting the Infinite Cosmos

Of everything that every was and will be

Evolving, letting go, seeking the highest good

As above 

so below

 

If Earth is the lungs of this vortex of swirl

And twirl and breath and light, earthly

Matters matter in the scheme and gleam

of your living and breathing and Being

Your evolving and unfolding in the

Syncopation of these orbiting Beings

As above 

so below

 

Atmospheric attitude is everything 

In the matter of what you matter about

You are a galactic being orbiting yourself

Of lungs and heart, and brain and soul

A planetary mystery that might only know

We are all connected

 As above

so below
