Poem in Your Pocket Day

Poem in your pocket day to celebrate Poetry Month.

Night Play

While darkness accumulates,

she sheds expectations

like chameleon lace.

A waterwheel of wings

rattles her window;

the pane rises

in the Moonhawk’s beak.

She slips inside his coat

feathered by scent of cloves,

moves behind his eyes.

They fly beyond

an eyelash of moon

until dawn’s pulse

sends a bead of honey

to her lips.

She returns

hungry for words.

- Penny Wilkes

Celebrate Earth Day Every Day

Hug a tree. Smell a bloom. Appreciate a bird. Notice a bee's activity. 

Absorb the energy and awe of nature's wonders.

Nature's Cycle

Many squirrels scurried around this morning. During the end of my wander in nature, a squirrel nestled in the street, hit by a car. Feeling warmth and noticing eye blinks, I did my best to rub his heart and energize life. 

I sheltered him under a bush for return to nature's nurture and add to the cycle of life forces.
