Seasons Haiku

 -------Seasons Haiku-------

Neither cage 

nor chains

Can stop the revolution.

Autumn 

taking form.

-------

Goldenrod

 -------Goldenrod-------

Leaves turn 

their inner color

As the light begins 

to change.

Like them 

I trust the spirit

That moves us 

each and all

With the earth 

and to the rhythm

Of goldenrod

and Fall

-------

Heart Medicine

 -------Heart Medicine-------

To appreciate 

the rose hip

Is to give 

ourself to Autumn

To the song and sway 

of the ever-changing

And the medicine 

within.

-------

Free 'Em All

 -------Free 'Em All-------

There are some 

locked up 

because, like seeds,

they hold a righteous knowledge

A light within 

that shines upon

the source of pain and plunder

A politic 

of food for all,

a dream 

that each can prosper.

To fight for them 

is to prepare

the garden for the seed.
