SPIRIT OF NATURE: C Michael Miller

Sea Life

A dance of elegance they leap

in grace of movements sweep

moonlights skipping on the waves

upon the circuits the currents paves

A Spanish Dancer twirls her skirt

whose painted like a rainbows shirt

Your works oh Jah blanket the Sea

where creatures frolic internally

Where Leafy Dragons in Reefs foray

the clown fish in anemone play

the razor fish like knives in sand

but foolish men think it's not planned

Where fierce and tender Orca steals

the infant pups of many Seals

where coral forests the oceans floor

the groves of Kelp hide many more

Odd companions the crab and shrimp

who share a hole like common tent

on flows the cisterns of the Deep

the lair where Leviathan do sleep

There flying fish cavort on wing

wild aquatic souls live and sing

here Dolphins cartwheel in escapade

in pods their dancing a parade

Who understands the Songs of Whales

who carry calves and smack their tails

to starfish who cling the rock of Beaches

here low tides the mussels reaches

These lives mankind has proved a danger

to poison Seas palace he is no stranger

Here predator man competes with Sharks

in every Sea his fatal marks

The Shark only does his hunt for meal

Mankind's a predator who kill and steal

Toxic pollution down rivers flow

the dead zones that kill the life below

Life perpetuates itself by designers plan

We question it's survival , it's death by Man

Those who love the earth these traits resist

There's too much beauty divinely kissed

Poetry of Providence

Earths Delights

Oh matchless our delight does never end

ceaseless variety of kingdom you defend

unending the exploration of the world around

photography of new discovery found

Within the caves growth of limestone formations

lattice work and crystal chandelier creations

eons of history where water carries matter

to build visions new and particles to scatter

Exquisite designs to view above and below

daily something unknown has made it's show

rainforests beset with capacious greenery

extensive with volumne the expanse of scenary

We confine ourselves to the walls of city

and alienate ourselves to all that is pretty

though we hail the lives of those who explore

who search the heavens and of earths floor

Infinite the knowledge the origin of planet

diversity of species of gems and stones granite

consider the growth and composition of stone

movement of water and pressure them hone

All know that many gems are formed under pressure

and human character like tested with measure

Like jewels are cut to ornament the treasure

God molds each and everyone to his pleasure

Hail I do men that fathom grotto's and caves

like ancient seamen went skimming the waves

courage required here tis for no knaves

those who travel here are only the braves

Boldly do men survey the planets secrets

forge the trails and navigate the seaships

track and map untamable habitats

where creatures thrive on sulfur but we collapse

In darkened caverns their ever present night

there do dwell creatures with self contained light

each creature for it's environments design is right

diverse the living things concealed from our sight

Scarcely tapped fathomless in it's diversity

what could one discover if occupy eternity

all those who become Gods Sons possess the ages

not constrained by death or times gauges

Provisions

Earth was a perfumed garden

residing in a single galaxy

beauteous fair among the planeted channels

so blooms its presence which has given birth to me

lighted reflections among the waterfalls

succulent as oranges in bowls of cedar

or apple blossom petals dancing in the winds

there enticed my heart

to the park of natures nursery

where the trails are laden

with baby's breath and blueberries myrtle

juniper , ash , thimbleberries , and chanterelles

we have steeped peppermint , currant and sassafras for tea

with hyssop , palmetto , and mandrake

turmeric , saffron , paprika , sage among our spices

dried plantain , maiden hair and olives

have graced our tables

mallow , ginseng , nutmeg , cinnamon , pennyroyal

tamarind , rue , every flora and fauna that sprouts

unrivaled in all her bounties

provisions made for every delight

energy and power has shaped her mountain ranges

meadows , valleys , islands , and seas

so complete her resources

that we can find nothing that delights

lacking in her but we ourselves

how quickly man has replaced

her cotillion of species

with cement and a flat screen

where empire means empty

and shaped steel means plenty

and the dance of dominion

is the desolation of what supports our lives

shackles , chains , slavery , prison

to a shallow society of souls surrendered

to the immolation of creation

the arsenal of greed and pride

which has bound the herd

upon the precipice of suicide

where swiftly the poison of property

has dashed and crushed life

upon the rocks where nothing can grow

the slow death of humanity

drowning in his own debris

our luxury someone else's slavery

the 10 year old who is hungry

and climbs into a pit for what we consider

less than nothing

mining our riches

we decry poverty and bondage

but sight unseen does not make us clean

where sensory masturbation is the

addiction of the masses

all that is left for the " lower classes "

I'll not give you this

if you haven't looked around

you are considered " remiss "

the 99 percent are still richer than

two thirds of the rest of humanity

your baby sitter is no longer "black and white"

but unfettered violence of every type

when the store is empty

where will you turn ??

Painting Life

You have led me beside the azure seas

to see the crimson coral of the fallen leaves

so like the rainbows that exist within our kin

the colors that lay upon our souls within

There drifts our souls in the shades and hue

where we slip the streams of the colors blue

or light their soul in softest shades of yellow

when in company as delighted companions fellow

Or quietly lay in shells still and tinged of pale grey

like the clouds that hang within the low of day

or to climb the hills the foliage with its glistening sheen

are painted trees and meadows in the depths of green

Here in life the blooms that every spectrum see

and offered us its view the veneer of eternity

and not so transparent the crystals of our glass

and our lives the shadows of pigments cast

The cosmetic gloss that we can wear like makeup

that dyes the actions which our souls we take up

some like varnish are just cover for what is dull

like the iron and the steel that contains our hull

But the tints that wash and stain our soil

can be the colors swirling within the gleams of oil

where they run together as the eddy's in the water

there each soul its colors is contained a single star

Migrations

The calls of the flocks to this years migration

a roving community of birds in each nation

rising and diving above mists in the rocks

the drawing together for birthing new flocks

The coo of the crane in a wetland bog

the bob of its head when its nabbed a frog

opened winged geese in passages soar

north back to south or a western shore

Above our earth the traversing vast miles

into the snowfall or cliffside defiles

a race upon water to lure this years mate

or share in the catch a dance woven like date

Such grace of movement their wings on the breeze

like rhythms beating to ascend above trees

how can one capture such beauty so grand

of a creatures decent upon sky upon land

Motion so elegant their journey's in sky

mankinds observations our own desire to fly

the form of their pinions upon outstreched wings

to follow freedom this kind of life dreams

Lowlands or Highlands the wild fowl domains

in deserts or plateaus aviary terrains

on pole ice or islands you'll find their nests

every year you'll find them their community rests
