Mardy Gales
Mardy gales pick
up
Small, tender
flower plants
Earth’s numerous
insects
And uproots
fruit trees
Little things
popping up green, red
Nature’s gift to
population
When levelled
finer plants
Leaking aroma
and fragrance
Mardy high gales
no new fear
They rule under
thunders, lightning and rains
Mardy gales rush
from oceanic depression
It swoops with
fatal calamity
Met office can
forecast
But cannot spike
them
Mardy high gales
despite its havoc
Seem welcome to
people
It havoc
disrupts
Can rebirth be
far behind.
Cherry Orchards In Sunset
Cherry orchards
in sunset
Greedy traders
invade
Intruders letch
after
Broken wigs
Cherry falls
Flock of birds
pick
And track
skyline
Bat look
spectres
Tenebrous
orchards groan
Shiver pale
cherry orchards
Skylarks
whistling above
But sky falls
not
Cherry orchards
on sale
An era ending
Grief no solace
Tenacity lacks
Dream cherry
orchards
See apocalypse
The sun sets.
Zone
Unemployment and
poverty
Steal our
liberty
This is a cruel
zone
Times of flying
drones
Modern times
full of cruelty
Shouts and howls
split mentality
We are passing
Through a zone
Either we cross
or fall
Hungry tide
howling
To take revengeful toll.
