i am


I am beautiful
I am strong
I have been on
This earth for so long
I have seen the beginning
I have seen the end
I have lived in this garden
No one wants to tend

little hidden lavender percussionist

little hidden lavender percussionist
wondered exactly what she missed
as she drummed inside the heart
of  this flower.
bathing in sweet nectar
hour after hour.

sweet whimsy
that only they know
less than 20 of them left
we cannot let
them go.

round and round
the way i feel.

african wild dog family values..repost

we live for the pack.
we play we run
we rest together,
when our day is done.
when one of us is ill,
we pick up the slack,
bringing food and comfort
until good health comes back.
we chase our prey,
we have to eat.
we do this to survive,
no easy feat.
but love we do and
care for our own
if you are born into
our pack
you are never alone.

cardinal. read

what goes on inside your head,
said the little cardinal. red.
what thoughts and moments
swirl about
do they whisper
or do they shout.

if i could find behind these leaves

if i could find behind
these leaves
a jungle world where
one never felt deceived
where words that were spoken
could be believed.
if i could find behind
these leaves.

snugglybug

this is a soft petal rug
a place where i can
be a snugglybug
before all the things
that see me as food
interrupt my rest time...
how very rude.

moth-rah

oh what a mind
perhaps filled with
too much froth...
who invented the silly thing
called moth.
perhaps a mere stodgy
butterfly
which occasional fools people
when he/she flies by.
and when winter comes
such damage they do
on any sweater that they
happens to fly onto.
and sci fi movies
villain supreme
the stuff of scary
freaky dreams.
but something cute
about their fuzzy selves
sorta like wicked winged
elves

little sparrow squibble squabble

sparrows squabble just like we
when in each other's company.
they want things their way
and in their eyes,
there is not much time
for compromise.
but when backed up
against the proverbial wall
they band together
for the good of all.

cuplets

she collects all her tears
in kind open cuplets
as slowly they fade
into a warm
summer day.

world orangutan day

orang

we live in forests.
trees of safe
warm and green.
our livelihood
palace...
this is where we
have always been.
but each day it
gets worse for us
as we forage for food.
and play
our kingdoms erased
humans please
go away!

the wish moon

the wish moon and
the little girl
sat together
as her dreams
unfurled.
the clouds wrapped both
in gentle dreams
sometimes life is
exactly what
it seems.

to float

to float above
in petal flower
heartbeats
dancing
in their grace and
power.

honor and privilege.

gratit-attitude

there are days when glum and sad
angry, hurt or just plain mad.
there are days just meant for cries
fake hellos and
sad goodbyes.
there are also
many reason to feel secure
that good times will come
be of that,
sure.
so thank you life
the only game
of which we know.
the ups, downs and
sideways...
upon which
we grow.

our neighborhood ecosystem parking lot is filled with little miracles

world elephant day

in the silence of sound
a deafening roar
what will happen
to the world
if we hear it
no more.

for mother orca mourning her calf

if i could swim you back to life
i would
if i could learn to let go
i should.
i know you are gone
but my heart still crying
why is this a world
where the ones we love
are dying.
if i could swim you back to life
again
i know i must stay goodbye
but i don't know when.

is a silly as can be.

being a goat sure works
for me

may beauty find the heart of all living things..
may kindness and compassion show us its light.
may we all join in harmony, in this loving "fight"

the quiet

hush the sounds
of inner working
fits and jerkings
outer smirkings
hush the noise
that is never
quiet enough
from my sadness
to
sever.

summer smiles

oh da summer
so much fun
surf and sand
and lots of sun.
oops the truth
starts to slip in
as she sweats in
pure chagrin.
sand is gritty
surf is wet
boat mal de mer
is sh*tty
haven't quite barfed
yet.
sand gets stuck between
the toes
and tracks all over the floor...
yeah summer sometimes
blows...
ask me again in 6 months time
when will then appear
the i hate winter rhyme😜

scarlotta

scarlotta dances in blue
sun kissed skies as
so tall she stands
even when clouds
go by.
by seasons, unbroken
her strength
never spoken.
