Mother Earth
Submission for Haiku Challenge
Like a mother you,
give it all to your offspring.
And they take and take.
…
You are forgiving.
Green veins and pumping blue heart.
Branches around us.
…
From the smallest bug,
to the biggest animal.
You feed, and you feed.
…
Forgive us our greed,
give us time to mend your pain.
For we all need you.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

Poor Mother Earth. She suffers quietly. One day she will surely roar. Really good haiku.
