What Nature Is
Dear violet skies I'm
done, dear freckled frogs I'm lost.
Dear blue ribbons like
Lakes, shallow pools that
I never step in, I'm gone.
Dear evergreen trees
once beloved by
nature far and wide, now stick
roots in a dirty
ground, those Young birch and
willow succumbed, leaves now dead,
I've fallen too.
And dear polluted
stars that used to scream to the
night, it's way too late.
