Mother Nature’s Haiku

Preservation Requires Effort

Mother Nature’s  Haiku

Mother Nature’s wind 
Passing freely with power 
No rhyme or reason

Various seasons
Multiple temperatures 
Only she decides

North, south, east and west 
All amidst her control too
From the ground to sky 

What lays deep below 
Or what floats deep above 
Confines her power 

However her love 
Cannot be prevented ever 
For her actions just 

Normally the cost 
From her violent outbreaks 
Is a cause from us 
 

Our own decisions 
Leading to neglect and harm 
From lack of respect 

We take this calm earth 
For granted like it’s deserved 
Versus a blessing 

But we should all know 
It can and will get way worse  
.Instead of better

When we don’t listen 
To her many calls and signs 
Then what to expect 

An environment 
Feeling abused by its host 
What undeserved love 

Mother Nature is 
Far more deserving of more 
From each one of us 

Together we can 
Individually we can 
Every bit helps

Wow Rob! What an effortless write! This one was left field, but its absolutely fantastic. I especially like how you have broken up the rhyme whilst keeping the structure solid. Such a compelling read, I just had to pin. Peace to you my friend, I hope you work goes swimmingly. Smiles! Max

Thanks Fish and I’m glad you enjoyed , I agree .. yes! Left field for sure 🙃
I know i can be a little more motivated to doing my part when I see trash on the ground on walks or being more disciplined in recycling etc . Calm waters to you as well my friend .

Wonderful read shallow waters. I think many of us have lost that connection with nature. So we don’t notice the signs. It is sad because this is the only planet we currently have. We need to be better caretakers of it
