    Poem Commentary

    images from the garden while enjoying a cup of coffee

    my garden bench

    plopped upon my garden bench
    his circus performers abound

    hairy tails flip here and there
    dancing aloft a wire so wee
    no net do I see

    she's so strong, teeth no less
    not so many uncle's do I see

    a dagger throws a sticky tongue
    makes for yucky swallows

    while cooling her toes
    a rhythm all her own

    such a pretty tattoo
    her mate not for me

    cooing love songs
    lovers flirting all a aloft

    dancing rites passed so long ago
    a music all there own

    red baron dives an obstacle course
    poor mrs. beetle now all alone

    talons all a flare dog spinning a loft
    amidst screams she's mine go away

    one last sip the coffee now cold
    Father I tip my hat oh such a show

    Observing true nature is a treat-even better when you write about it-then others can share in the moment-Namaste...Earthly

    a bow like any other, joy could not come

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
