Is jealousy of creation a part of human nature?
Is it innocence to assume that all flowers
Are for the plucking? Is it righteous to
Reach out and take take take take take
Calling the self both messenger and author?
.
Is it human nature to pluck the best?
To hunt through the ordered gardens and the wilderness
Gathering the prettiest and the most significant,
Plucking the flowers from their context
And claiming, “Now this is mine.” ?
.
Why not take all the best that you can perceive?
Why not take what moves your soul? Take take, take take .
Take what brings some comfort. Take take take take.
Why should the intensity of your wanting
Not be justification for thieving actions?
.
If there is beauty in the wild,
Is that Wildness available for the plucking?
Are there no consequences for your taking taking
Taking taking taking taking taking.
There is always balance in nature.
.
There are always consequences.
The flattery of your wanting is insufficient.
The Universe cares not for flattery.
When beauty flows into your heart,
Does that make you the author or the audience?
.
You vandalizing thieves who have destroyed
With your careless critical trampling;
You flattering greedy plagiarizing soul cannibals;
You deceive only yourself that you are the art,
Yourself the artist and the gardener.
.
You trolling gatherers of art’s life blood,
Think that there is no price to pay. Wrong.
Restitution is always made. Balance is a contract
With the Universe, made before the birth of beauty.
Think on symmetry when you claim what is not yours …
.
Da! Da! Da!
.
.
.
Through all strata of creation balance is maintained.

This Widow Maker tried to make a widow out of me

Bear … 03.12.2014 This Widow Maker tried to make a widow out of me.
My husband says it missed him by less than a meter.
No sound, no warning. He felt the rush of air and the
first branches hit the ground as he had just turned
away to go inside.

Widow Makers are actually trees and tree branches that shed or fall. They can be deadly if they land on unwary persons or animals below. Once fallen, the dead-fall becomes home for wildlife once more., But it also creates obstacles and new hazards on the ground or submerged in water or mud. During Mother Natures spring cleaning, she sweeps the old dead wood from the forest to the floor.

WIND FALL

The Widow Maker is a killer
Hidden in the glory forest of new growth
.
The Widow Maker is waiting
Shedding death with winter’s clothes
.
The Widow Maker is biding time
Sustaining Dryocopus Pileatus
.
The Widow Maker is suspended
Between living and dead
.
The Widow Maker is paused
Waiting for the dagger moment
.
The Widow Maker anticipates
The deadfall reunion
.
The Widow Maker lingers
Giving life to the Spring
.
The Widow Maker is listening
For the wind fall song of death
.
The Widow Maker remains poised
Leaning towards the tipping threshold
.
The Widow Maker is attuned
Yv-wi tsv-di singing between the shadows
.
The Widow Maker is attending
The deadly dance of flowering rebirth
.
The Widow Maker is a killer
Hidden in the glory forest of new growth
