Nothing Left

We fret over it
That image on the tube
Spouting out daily travesties
Prepping for advertising interlude

Will the World end?
Our exhaust pipes will tell
Dead fish on the shore
Just one more smell

But we can be grateful
Deniers abound
To add in humor
To the quiet coming round

Soon the screen will be blank
And no tear left to shed
Buildings all vacant
Nothing left to dread

Silent Spring

Poem ...Silent Spring

It is Spring
Leaves are brown
Dead bees litter the ground

I dig for roots
To save the day
For a short time anyway

Never thought
This could bring

Suppose


Poem...Suppose

Suppose there is no tomorrow
Not another day to borrow
Death like a thief in the night
Leaving you with sorrow

Did I do my best to love you
And when the day is through
Will your days continue brightly
Will our love continue true

The World continues turning
And skies continue blue
Just know how much I love you
When this  time on Earth is through
