Writings

Monarch Butterfly

A little

Butterfly

Circles the butterfly bush

Drinking, dancing

Eloquently as she

Flutters her wings

Gleefully!

Higher ,showing off

Islands of colors,

Joining together with

Kaleidoscopes of

Light, that flickers off of her,

Monarch Butterfly wings.

Nectar-producing flowers.

Ommatidia eyes are compound.

Photonic crystals-see colors

Quite amazing

Rays of sunshine

Swallowtail butterfly

Start ABC

A start is standard concept

But a huge struggle

Complicated concept, contrasted

Due to its very nature

Everything began at one point

Final to exist

Grand phenomena is daily matter

Having been reused in every juncture

Inventions are inductions

Joining gears to become new

Kindred spirits sharing laughter

Laughter made me us anew

Maybe what will exist was made

Nothing lost in time and place

Only ...

Zoo

Another day,

Beginning slow.

Chilling in my cave,

Damn, Iā€™m brave.

Echoeing roars,

Following amores.

Gaining weight,

Having food,

Irresistable taste.

Joining my friends,

Killing some bugs,

Laughing in defense,

Marking my spots,

Nourishing plants,

Organic ants,

Pissing in trees,

Quaking in breeze

Rolling in grass

Shaking my fur,

Teasing a stir.

Us in enclosures,

Valleys of visitors,

Weā€™re the expos...

Manā€™s Best Friend

A ray of sunshine pierces through the

Blinds. A yawn splits my maw as I rise.

Canā€™t wait. Gotta pee. Tail wagging,

Dainty nails clacking on hardwood.

ā€œEarly bird gets the worm,ā€ I tell my mom.

ā€œF- off,ā€ she grumbles but I bark again.

Guess she wants to do this the

Hard way. I howl my fury.

Itā€™s time to get up, my bark pleads.

Just get up and let me pee!

ā€œKeep your tail on!ā€ Mom grumbles and I sm...

Zero hour, the day of the captive human begins...

Morning Cat

Aa! Iā€™m awake. No need to yell.


Breakfast is ready? Yay! This day is going well.


Catnip is better, but Iā€™ll wait for that at lunch


Drinking this water is filling me up a bunch


Every day, I like to play in the sun


For it is warm, and it is fun!


Grass is golden, and the wind is peaceful


Hmph! Donā€™t pick me up! Itā€™s distasteful


I like the ground, so please donā€™t touch me


Just like that, she...

Believe

A wonderful day it be

Be it sunny or rainy for thee

Cause the wonder of life is free

Destined to love are we


Either today or tomorrow we leave

Fleeting memories of past we cleave

Grieving for those we miss canā€™t see

Wandering aimlessly believe

TessašŸ¦‹...

The BumbleBee

As Iā€™m flying from flower to flower


Buzzing the way that I do


Coming into your garden


Dreaming of the life I always knew


Every day I go back to the hive


For my Queen and my friends


Goodness gracious I canā€™t believe my eyes


Honey sweet honey is all I see inside of this beehive...

The World Bleeds

Another morning comes

But I canā€™t help but wonder

Could this morning have been different?

Different if the humans didnā€™t ruin it I ponder?


Even after all their attempts to fix it

Fires have been unleashed upon my world

Gases bursting through the air

Hurricanes and tornados whirl


I donā€™t understand how humans

Justified their greedy needs

Knowing that hell will be unleashed

Later all the world...
