RE: Free Cans/Jars of Humanities Plastic Soup

As an Haiku you are, As traditional poetry you are, as free verse you are
As video poetry you are cutting the path for digital poetry, and the Spirit Speaks Free, Asha feel that poetry is like water, she shall find a place to be...from you my friend
thank you to eternities end........ WS

what I meant was use the youtube codes here,
so they get more scene views on the youtube versions

RE: Free Cans/Jars of Humanities Plastic Soup - Natural Gemstones of Life

Natural gemstones of life

Earth’s natural gemstones thunder down
Miriards of multi sized scattered diamonds tumbling
trained jewels, beads, roll down roof glazing
Tiny shards of light begin to bounce, dance and reflect magnificantly
At first twinkles of days sunlight peep from behind storm clouds
Enters sunrise, day breaks
Vast darkness of night-times tears quickly disperse
evaporating to the brighter warmer climate
Nature’s tears are quickly dried
Outside still few mirrors remain reflecting the skies and beauty
Besides these little basins of wonder
patchy shadowed pavements still damp retract
As temperatures rise I recollect musing over shrinage of moisture
Just as the tides retrace their steps back to the oceans
But who ever sees their journey thereafter
The cycle of life continues whether we notice or not
So every droplet wasted counts
As climates change so must we
Earth and sea compositions alter
It’s down to us to make a difference
To help preserve and protect the living species
and precious commodities we need for every day living
before these treasures are lost, gone from our world altogether
Richer or poorer are we crumbling our planet
At the cost of bling we run down waste holes
Or leave to trail the land around us
Are we throwing our futures away
Should we not be evaluating the cost of new things precious
The waters of life, catch them if you can
Earths natural gemstones thunder down

Hey Asha! smile I did watch both .. I love the use of video .. it helps all to relate, no matter what the subject matter. I made a sample video (30 seconds) and posted it to my facebook page - I'm under page name: Ken Knight and use my Knight gravatar from OP as my FB profile pic .. I made it to help drum up some interest in the OP site ... check it out when you get some time. The video is called :Beyond The Door. Thanks my friend! smile Ken

RE: Free Cans/Jars of Humanities Plastic Soup

Upon Urban Sunsets

Night time settles
Upon urban sunsets
Calm and tranquility
Flushes the unending
Daily rat race
Golden hues melt
Amongst smog filled skies
As factories and
Civilisation fingerprint
The ozone forever

RE: Our Pens Are Mighty, Let Them Speak Out For Our Cause. We Will Be Heard




"Mans Cruel Hand"
Wolves Too Shocking

This issue is highly controversial, but to me the senseless killing of wolves now as a sport should be outlawed in the world before we whip them out again.

Enjoy my video all, please remember the great creatures that share this earth here with us.

Let you pen write the verse for your cause now...........love asha

And peace and beauty fill the hearts of all
So I will continue to search as my spirit takes flight
For a place far from man’s destructive beck and call

My Friend , I am impressed with the frustration so well expressed in your flawlessly composed poem. Abuse of every sort is the tragic concern of all conscientious humans, I want to believe. Please read the lighter counterpart of your poem............"Winding Road". Follow this link;

Hampton, I share the frustration so well expressed in your superbly manicured poem. I am thinking that all conscientious humanity is concerned with abuse of all sorts. Please read my lighter counterpart to your estimable poem, "Two men sit on the edge of a ditch eating dumpling and fish; one sits on a box on which is crudely writ' HANDLE WITH CARE- EXPLOSIVE., one pecks at a rock with an iron bar, etc.

Note the allusions implied. Chao, My Friend.

RE: Free Cans/Jars of Humanities Plastic Soup - Here comes Heaven

7 meter ,

Here Comes Heaven
_________________





Digging up the dead from old
dinosaurs beneath the cold
depths of hell, where flames feign gold
honey for the oil sold

Eco Planet starts with me
when I choose the phosphate-Free
little fishes in the sea
die from colors in TP

...running down the walls of space
pretty water, moving lace
residue will leave a trace
outlines chalked on Mama's face

...calling debt the plastic rain
find it in the new food chain
want it, need it, kill mundane
slaughter houses inhumane

...eating nitrates then irate
wonder how I'll ever mate
mama give me one more plate
house me in your welfare state.

lazy, boring, give me more
junk food, garbage, greasy roar
seems I'm still too Eco poor
selfish me, pollution boar.

begging, ... "help me .... to restore
equal balance to my core
oceans filled with globs offshore
death is eating at my door."

...come now Life, with Heaven Fate
lest the temple desecrate....
sprout the herbs that will abate
deadly germs that procreate.

...feed me knowledge to sustain
weakened moments that contain
my mistakes on folly train
rich foods, bad moods, sad domain

...grow your greens, let me embrace
Father, Mother, interface
give me berries to replace
hedonistic food disgrace

if I eat that berry pie
physics is the reason why
death comes slow from hells' sweet lie
sixty years and I will die

is my dead food killing me
why's it taste so tongue pleasie
"it's not fair," in mouthy plea
flavor, please, with no teasie

life feels centered in my tongue
feeding death to cancer lung
addict to .... food-flavor's rung
junk food won't help keep me young

God of Living gone awry
help me find the purest high
waves of truth that underlie
reasons why our bodies die.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
