Green Thumb and Red Heart

A green thumb

is a red heart

which watches in

awe as the gold sun

and blue sky

the crystal rain

and the nutbrown soil

perform their mass

to transubstantiate

the seed and

sod

into the green of God.

A red heart cuts red tape

A red heart ever finds

the way.





(to tree protector J Metzler)

Fruitarians don't parse

parsley



*

Acacia leaves tremble

around the giraffe

.. bamboo shoots

round koala bears

lose their laughs
