Daily Note
Every day, a photograph, a poem. Our blooming hawthorn tree in May’s blue skies will probably be a repeat photo/poem many times. Today I enjoy its colors once again and wonder, in this vast universe, if this life, these colors exist elsewhere? Will we ever know, and shouldn’t we care for this life-giving planet and its flora and fauna and people?
I’m glad some people are thinking about the planet: United Nations: Caring for the Earth: A Strategy for Sustainable Living 1991. Do we need to get back to it? Is there a new one? I wonder if you wonder…
And so, a poem….
Poetry
Colors of Earth
Do you ever wonder
Sheri Edwards
If the colors on the earth—
the every day ones
of planted yards—
blushing pink
graceful green
against the bold blue sky
on a May Hawthorn tree—
exist anywhere else
in the universe?
Or do we need
to protect the colors
of the flora and fauna
of nature’s gifts to us?
