      Life can be brutal

      Other bees fly in pairs

      A flock of birds commute together

      From flower to flower bounty they share

      In all manner of weather

      Oh those industrious bees

      They gift the world not with money

      How they hustle, how they bustle

      And trade their life

      For a single speck of honey

      Time

      Light bounces of the silver ocean

      She walks on the soft sand

      Busy servants sweeping motion

      Palm leaves gentle land

      Reach through time and space

      Breeze caresses the green meadow

      You touch my scared face

      A heart, and voice so hollow

      World will exact its toll

      When flesh is no longer keen

      All are doomed to fall

      Better days have been

      Time you treacherous thief

      Unseen in the night

      Life ever so brief

      Ushers the fading light

      How can any man agree

      And willingly comply

      Not to thirst, hunger, feel or see

      Or surrender when he is to die

      The twilight days

      Have come so fast

      Like the suns dying rays

      All that one can see is the past

      Nothing more to say

      And very little to do

      To the sky hope and prey

      When the reaper comes for you

      I fell in the middle of somewhere

      North of the black stump

      I paid my fare

      It got me over the hump

      Old man took my hand

      Showed me his wondrous reign

      Smiley weathered face a headband

      Hand in my pocket a costly pain

      Another offered a helping hand

      A good Samaritan bless his soul

      It was all part of master plan

      To extract a gleeful toll

      I happen upon a young man

      In a red and black uniform

      Who said rest by this cooling fan

      Ill find the answer on my phone

      He thought about my troubles

      In a kind voice he did declare

      I have an answer to your problem

      Though you have to commit to a fare

      His cohort at once came running

      Exclaiming offer of assistance

      Sadly your home is trembling

      But its of no importance

      At last I met kind traveler

      Who did assist in my hour of need

      Chose not to exact a pound of flesh

      Instead, with kindness he planted a seed

      Replenished and reinvigorated

      My faith in human creed

      For there are kind and helpful men

      In all of Earths lands there are indeed

      Water

      A warm winters night

      Is obscene with no delight

      Like a dozer’s relentless mighty push

      Which sterilizes our noble bush

      I remember the promise of green

      And bubbling of life divine

      Running water so pristine

      Natural world was yours and mine

      But what of it I hear you say

      All of this earth must die

      Tis not point to fear today

      And none are yet to utter a cry

      Its not death that I fear

      Nor its cohort decay

      But black air that fill my lungs dear

      For the future of this jewel I pray

      Man cant live on bread alone

      Industry needs meat

      Headstrong heart has turned to stone

      And soon he wont need his feet

      Progress will not be denied

      In this there is no merit

      Life quality has declined

      Our children will bear it
