earth

Winds are like fainting Ghosts, bees a stethoscope Overwhelmed by sound Of surging hearts. Wounded in beauty The earth offers handcuffs Of gold to its guests. Does the butterfly Experience its biography After death and a planet Experience its rebirth After extinction of a race. Rain delivers sustenance To sunflowers, earth's Hours are delivered To the Sun. Wildfires run Through forests. The Timed beauty of waterfalls Echoing, moonlight Moving across the nightjars Wing, beauty of nature's Daughters has equal allure.
