Poem Artwork

The eight murrey persimmons--

Remains of the autumn cast,

Offering up the winter sacrifice,

Spread sweetly astringent taste

Smelled even in a chilly midnight.

 
The tree on its healthy roots and
 
With hard wood does not afraid

Of any gradient of temperature,

Remaining vital in severe cold

And torrid heat; it always keeps

A low profile to be fruit-bearing.

Nature is always teaching us something. I especially like the implications of this poem: stay strong and keep a low profile. Why exaggerate and draw attention to ourselves.

Terrorforming Your Environment by RickthePoetWarrior

Never to leave well enough alone our attempts at managing our society, culture, and environment are recycled, re-used, and just generally regurgitated
