Billboard Show
Red-orange hue beneath layered white and blue,
the Sun resting right, the Moon caught half-bright;
before BROWN-RED-YELLOW secedes the fight,
and day-dreamt plans can start to construe.
Prosperous motives, persuasions poke through,
Tall, Wide figures, slice broadcasts in line-sight;
Flashy petroleum fuels trucker's delight-
Vote Yes! Amendment 2- merely names a few.
O'er brown hills, across shadowy terrain,
travelers find Food Stops! Rest Stops galore!
Temptations enchant senses, tickle the brain,
Luminous colors impossible to ignore.
Lost are landmarks, carved many years ago-
accompany the BOOMing- "Billboard Show"

Asked why did you wash my house away
The river replied rushing past
Why did you fill
by Grace Given
We Are Crying
We should all consider well,
The lessons Nature teaches now.
What we build up with strife,
May not sustain us
Expanding capsules
Growing, changing
Masked unjustly
by a billowing fog
Wilting without a reason
Left with nothing
No future,
