Blooming biophilia
Vivid green
Calm reflection of powder blue sky
on the surface of the sea
Sun-drenched rainforest
bursting at the seams with life
Fragrant plumeria
A splattering of honeysuckle
Two golden cane (arepa) palms frame the view
A squirrel hops from branch to branch
Distant drilling hangs in the air
filtered through syrup of humidity
A guard dog barks below
scared and in pain
Graceful dangling tendrils of feathers
waft past on the tail of
an iridescent tropical drongo,
its tail a decoy for chasing birds of prey
Survival adaptations
create accidental beauty,
enhancing the experience of life
Nature is sustainable,
propelling itself effortlessly
The world hangs together, by love
It’s amazing how the forms hang together
even though they are changing/empty.
Love halds it all together,
even when there is hurt
It includes the pain
Cavernous breathing in the beehive
Tiny alien robots performing menial tasks
these bees are onto something,
meditating through the mundane
A shivering dysregulated weasel stands on the beach
facing the discomfort of cowardice
alienated from nature’s flow (also natural)
Crispy clouds of mangosteen
Spinoza… Dispenza
Rapping, tapping, at the chamber door,
the drongo whispers “nevermore”
