Grandfathered buildings
cast shadows in the city—
heritage listed.

Support

Humans and nature,
supporting one another—
limping otherwise.

Protector

Bold and beautiful—
holding ground so we can stand,
nature takes a stance

Lessons

photo of a tree with its bark bent

Nature knows what’s best;
take a leaf out of a tree—
bend so you don’t break.

The end

All parties must end—
when music stops, lights go off;
just a pile of bones.
