Eden Calling

Tiny fighter pilots,

Racing and chasing,

Defending territory,

Challenging for control,

The deed holder,

Silhouetted on a power line,

A politics of competition;

Flowers and food,

Lovely meals,

Planted & pruned,

For simple joy,

Hummingbirds & butterflies,

Come when called,

A vision of Eden,

Her hands celebrating,

Our mouths smiling,

Laughter at sunset.
