✨ The wind/ she screams/ we will not bow to kings/ each if us is a raindrop in the storm/ that will tear down/ the emperor’s gold-plated castle ✨

little ducklings
in the brown reeds
cry for mama
from the water’s edge:
baby on board

✨Worlds Underground✨
Cicada husks cling/ to withered tree trunks/ The forest hides her heart/ underground

🌳 Flash of wild green/ grows beside an uncontrolled stream/ Don’t forget to breathe 🌳

Money tore down trees/ Filter for grieving air, lost/ Cut and paste houses

Mother rock remains/ a scaffold, shaping water/ wearing lines and time

Jet soars past mountain
leaves a bushy white cat's tail -

A graveyard of roots. Stitched together by time and age.
Like puckered skin sewn with the quiver of an aging hand…

Sleepy groundhog peeks from cozy hole,
With curious eyes and a gentle soul.
He digs and digs, then curls up tight,
Dreaming of the warm sunlight.

Uranium invades harmony/ Fish can’t outswim hidden poison/ Corporate goals achieved

✨ Freshly brewed coffee/ Steam curls around cold fingers/ Ref leaf wind stops time ✨
Autumn 🍂 is the pause, the breath, the last sip from a warm mug before winter descends

Winter’s white is winter’s snow
See how it dances as the north wind blows
Glimmering, shining, frozen
Draping the evergreens in winter’s lace
Crocheted by nature, embraced by souls
