So much difference
and yet so much in common—
life-giving plants, us.

Teach!

Two halves make a whole,
lesson in equality—
world shows, man ignores.

Spot it

a leaf-less tree with a full moon barely visible from behind it — Can you find the moon?

Playing hide and seek,
a treasure in sunset skies,
awaiting hunters.

crushed under a world of hate,
is human, nature.

Treat

full moon on a clear sky, as seen through tree branches

Pearl of the ocean,
treating gazers with its grace—
full moon in the sky.
