Save Mother Earth
Forest of concrete,
Nature's creations deplete
Future's pride complete
Nature waves defeat,
Man's selfish greed can't compete
Man filled with deceit
Salvation to wit,
Past's follies let's not repeat
Earth's hope let us lit
Let vows be concrete,
Reverse what we did deplete
Stewardship complete.
DARK SKIES BEAT THE DRUM
where lies, betrayals,
violence, hardships
all come to weaken
a man's gentle soul
TEARDROPS FALL IN ANGUISHED HUM
hopelessness and apathy
made men silent, unwilling
to change or fight anything
in life and within himself
PARCHED LAND SATED DUMB
until man is filled
of great sufferings
and choked with anger,
drowned in disbelief
.......
Only then will he
unite his numbed heart and mind
learn to fight for change
Rainy Chatter
Tip tap tip tap
Rain danced the tap
Fleece for my wrap
Phone on my lap
My bed's my trap
Feigning a nap
Tippy tappy
Raindrops yappy
Curtains flappy
Cold gusts snappy
Slipped in trappy
I'm not happy
Tipsy tapsy
Weather's tipsy
Cloud's not flipsy
Endless drizzy
Trees are dizzy
I feel lazy
Tipper tapper
Heard no thunder
No volt bender
I feel hunger
Jar to plunder
Lemon ginger
Tip tap tip tap
Off for nightcap
Chatter now ZAP!

She has always considered life as an endless journey, searching for new goals, and challenges and how she can in small ways make a difference in every path she takes. She sees humanity as one family where each one must support the other and considers poets as a voice for Truth in pursuit of Equality and proper Stewardship of nature despite the hindrances of distorted information and traditions.
