BENEATH THE GENTLE FOXGLOVES

BENEATH THE GENTLE FOXGLOVES

were i a god
I would build a world 
not 

unlike~
this~
one~

where snow would still
whisper magic in the woods of
weary travellers 

where the willowy foxglove
would still guard the
hedgerows of the valleys

where the sky would still weep
and bleed to paint a pink
canvas

where the sea would still roar
and roll its colours beneath the blue mountains

where trees would
still gift berries to feed
the small lives

where the moon would ever
break the dark to play in
the diamond light of stars

where the grass would grow
tall and lush, green and
nutritious for all

and where the lamb would
frolick ever safe ~ for mutton
could never exist 

in my world~

and neither would humans
But that's a good thing
isn't it?

LOL. Actually, when the phone guys were putting in the new lines here, they didn't see me sleeping...I mean working! at my desk here, and ran the lines right through my head, so I got your poem previous to being posted! And it was great. Like music through my ears, and brain. Lovely, Marionette! M.

LOL! I actually used the cream on my temples after they forced the lines through my cranium(I remember being half asleep...I mean awork! when they were doing it, and one guy saying something about 'Man! this is the hardest substance I've ever put lines through!'), so I've got that going for me!...I guess. 
Anyway, I'm sure you're amazing, so don't worry about any wrinkles! 
Mateo.

Aw...you are too kind Pratibha, I'm honoured. Yes, the world would be a beautiful place if only everything could survive on grass and there were no humans, well, maybe just a few kind ones ?
