Masts that stretch into the sky
reaching heavenward
to catch the sea’s breeze
and fly
Motors idle warming up
diesel’s fume and gasoline burns
searching through oceans depths
for shrimp pink and plump
Mother Nature tempts the sailor man
with morsels and tidbits
found neath her skirts
left there by her nurturing hand
Mud slides and great tsunami’s
does she wield
when her children mistreat
and go against her policies
Madness reigns upon her surface
man against man
and man against woman
to control her uterus
Mothers and daughters
forced to choose sides
fathers resigned
to worship green fodder
Morning arises in full glory
landscape littered
with leaves of the fallen
Mother Nature ends another story
