Here in these special places

the shadow of the last tree fall

across a poisoned lake

like a stiff corpse on a steely slab.

In the light of too many fading moons

a loon crawls sick across an oil slick

and slips its heavy feathered coat

over a heavy- metal slope.

I hear mourning songs,

a thick and stupid hope

from deep within

a collective throat.

A warm wind blows the dusty breath

of death across the wet lands

we hide the slime of mines

and send our tendrils deeper

to last lost lake of gold

  1. "Hi!"

    This is beautiful written.

    The Gold is a treasured memory of beauty, which can not be taken away from the heart.

    Great poem, once again.

    Cheers : )


  2. This is great, I read #2 first, Kudos.

  3. If this ties into the first one, have we moved from the Amazon or are you talking about all?  I question the flight pattern of a loon going that far south is why I ask.    The reference to pristine lake was developed well "last lost lake of gold".  Overall, a very strong statement.
