When the Crows get up
The mice goto sleep
As the eagle soars high
All the rabbits weep
As the fish swim deep
The red salmon leap
The big brown bear
Is always there
Some buffalo graze
In the morning haze
The groundhog sits up and has a look
No shadow to see, it's head it shook
"Nature is Everywhere"
Animals and plants
God made it good
This we understand
It's beautiful the Sun and Sky
Wonderful, the rivers and creeks
You breath in and get high
But alas we let out a long sigh
For all is not good, "Understood"
Our nature is weak
But we are strong
So what can be wrong
When the last river dries up
And the last fish is dead
Man will Realize
You cannot eat "Money"

I like the "abrupt" ending of your poem....gives it punch. Enjoyed it. JM
You should know that so far as Buddha-nature is concerned, there is no difference between an enlightened man and an ignorant one. What makes the difference is that one realizes it, while the other is ignorant of it.

And I hope I'm not around to see that very sad day.
