Earth, and Heaven coalescing
now in the Vernal Equinox
of the Northern Hemisphere
in North America
of the southern United States
outside Nashville, Tennessee
in the Southern Hills the Earth’s vestments of verdant green
the ‘lil woods thick in foliage
deep in dark shadows
abundant wildflowers grace the fields
rabbits stark still buck and run
birds so abundant buzzing your head the hermit of Bird Heaven
goes out walking the grounds
marveling calmly this obstreperous display
the Earth’s flora and fauna
throbbing, radiating energy, life, and growth
here radiantly all things coalescing Herb Stone
here&now working poetry
