2008 Poetry



Magnificent falls creating light mist,

buried deeply inside the forest land.

Acreage vast with vegetation grand,

people would think it by God was kissed.

Things are there we don’t fathom to exist,

marvels of nature through time they withstand.

Some of them just hanging on by a strand,

amazingly they all strive to resist.



They’re those who would cut and clear it all out,

leaving the forest to wither and die.

Causing the rains to dry up and drought,

requiring us all to stand up and shout.

Cannot let it go, must not say goodbye,

it’s something the planet can’t live without.
