Apple Chapel, Pine Shrine

Folder: 
Flowers Sunspun

Is God's favorite chapel

sunlight dappled

trees of apple?

Her Ichi Ban shrine..

trees of pine?

Her beloved mosque

vine covered kiosks?

Her best synagogue

a cranberry bog?

Her holiest church

woods of birch

to God's beloved temples

Within each acorn

are infinite oaks

which can cover the world

with jadeleafed cloak.

It is difficult
to deal with genderless
God when using
adjectives.. so sometimes
God is referred to as His

1. Harvesting
The movie "Days Of Heaven" shows the birds and rabbits
  killed or evicted by harvesting machines. A University of Oregon
  teacher has estimated 3 mammals an acre are killed by harvesters.
  This is a very low estimate. There are thousands of insects,
  snakes, nesting birds, rabbits, and other creatures killed per
  acre.
2. Buying non-organic food
  Buying food treated with insecticides kills not only
  thousands of insects but Mother Earth's water systems
  and all life which depends on it.
3. Buying packaged food made of tree paper
  Buying packaged food destroys habitat.
4. Eating plants rather than the products of plants
  The consciousness of plants has been demonstrated
  in the research of Chandra Bose, knighted by Queen Victoria,
  in research cited in Peter Tompkins' The Secret Life of Plants
  and many other areas
