November Train

Posted on November 4, 2021


November
Blew in like a southwest train
Giving us hope and thanks
For much needed rain

Following October
With record rainfall
Maybe our drought
Won't be bad after all

Keep fingers crossed
This time of year
Our plants need the rain
Our water is dear

The Halloween Tree

Posted on October 23, 2021

Don't you worry my friend
The park downtown
Sees this once a year
It's really Nothing to fear

The Halloween Tree
His Bark is worse than his bite
Late at night
He gives such a fright

His trunk grows arms
His Bark becomes armor
His branches swords
It quite the horror

As soon as the day is done
On All Hallows Eve
The fright goes away
He's dropped all his leaves

Forest Fire of Color

Posted on October 22, 2021

I'm so glad
You were spared
Left to grow
Your leaves aglow

Rain has started
Pray for more
Forests dry
Consumed by fire

Action needed
By you and me 
Prevent the trees
Catastrophe

It’s Never Too Late

Posted on October 20, 2021

Governments are fiddle-y
While Earth burns
Literally

A show of force
Let's use our Power
Change our course

It's been forever
Since all good people
Came together

It starts at home
What we can do
We're not alone

Ride a bike
Avoid the car
Walk and hike

DIY
Avoid packaging
Make dolphins smile

Use your hands
Up-cycle, reuse
You'll be glad

If everyone
Did one small part
What a great start
