Higher ground
Has been found
Step up the game
Don’t be tame
Holly Grail
Have no tail
Stand up tall
Hold your ball
Forget fame
It’s all the same
Getting old
Worried cold
Cracking the shell
Of human hell
On Earth or Stars
To death with wars
Virus or germ
All just a term
Hug and kiss
Give it a miss
Theories relative
To my narrative
Story untold
Flu and cold
In the heat of night
Kick in the fight
Dream of freedom
Wake up in a womb
Air for sale
Be quick!
Impecable with words
Diplomats on the screen
Doing the right thing
Seemingly a good idea
Charity of rolled out drugs
Given freely like lollies
No time to feed the mouse
The dragon has escaped
Off the charts statistics
Feeding fearful minds
Vulnerable when frightened
Gullible to accept all said
Crosses from a cemetery
Filling up town square
Who can see through the veil
When confronted with death
Dimmed lights in the mental fog
Get that air filter on the face
Plexiglass to avoid human contact
No touch or even scratch
Without question smother your hands
With those toxic chemicals in a tube
Washing is not necessary any more
Politely obey rules made to save you
Early onset of bonkers
Sanity not sanitation
AFTER THE RAIN The sky is blue again
Another opportunity to take a walk by the creek
With lorikeets and wild turkey chicks
Native bees flying to their hive
Paper bark tree standing tall in the sun
Fallen leaves make their mark on the ground
Did we make a positive mark on life today?
What a glorious chance to be on Earth
Flowers of yellow colors full of sweet nectar
Fungi size of a pizza plate contrast in green grass
Smell of rain drops and the forest under our feet
Make the most of each day as life can be so sweet
Taste its nectar!
Another chance to walk in the bush
Hardy trees of diverse colors and shades
Forest fruits unknown to our tastes
Roots by the creek sprawling like a web
Painted rock in the trunk sharing a message
Are we finding all the signs nature leaves us?
What is she trying to portray?
Perhaps that the day is here
When NOW is the time to live life
Stop the wait for ‘That day’ in the future
As there is no certainty on this road called life
What was yesterday are just blurred memories
What is going to be tomorrow is never sure
Today and in each given moment
Between the breaths going in and out
Live just a little!
Enjoy the mystery…
