“ The Way ” ~ to discover ~
A frame of mind
Yet innocent,
Be a time
Beneficent,
In a face
Speaks sincere,
Of a wish,
Wants feel
The caress
Of a kiss,
Finds give way
To discover,
The onset of bliss!
“ A Snow Flake ” ~ at the bottom lies ~
A snow flake
At the bottom lies,
Be reason I wonder
About the others
Who first arrived,
And now held under
Manage to survive,
While on the surface
Layer upon layer
More materialize,
Thus no surprise
As scale expands
Find to hold hands,
Supporting each other
To bear the strain
They’ve need to shoulder,
When snow turns to rain…
Hence be brothers
Reach for druthers,
To save what’s left
Spared of corrupt,
If not in vain
From mans foul mess,
When snow flakes turn to rain!
“ The Vulture ” ~ on leftover culture ~
I am the vulture
Who seeks to feed
On leftover culture,
Beyond man’s need
For more than ever
Be generous measures,
Egregiously squandered
Thru greedy ventures,
Producing such waste
In varied assortment
For every bird’s taste,
Hence so dissipates
Held water and air
Of once drinkable state,
And near breathable space!
