dirt

by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed — Read all 584 poems by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed

Precious is the land and the generations who inhabit what man cannot create. (clr)

Tuesday, August 28, 2007


Poem Artwork

dirt--spice--
aloes and cloves--
elixir of ages
soothes physical woes

dirt...life--
force of creation--
roots of our ancestors
rockbed of nations

dirt..strife--
sanguine pollution--
hotheads in war zones
no peaceful solution

dirt...price--
diamonds and oil--
coal miner's daughter
knows nothing but toil

our price--earth's stife
uplift sisters and brothers
lift praise to GodFather...
guard precious EarthMother

Cynth'ya,

What do I think of "Dirt"? You make it beautiful. Short, succinct lines pack a lot of thought: well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
