Gaia (new poem)


GAIA (new poem)by Tim Kavi

birdsong
rain's pitter-patter
children ask
plants; why
do you grow?

the sweet refrain
only calls
GAIA to see
what's the matter.

Imagined Lines (poem)




Imagined Lines
by Tim Kavi

If One Were to Imagine
how beautiful Nature is
within and without
one would if not 
for the trappings 
of science, imagine
they are seeing
magic and beauty
at the same time.

Rain Country (new poem)




Rain Country by Tim Kavi 

wet drops
so consuming that
they threaten
to flood you
with waves
of self deprecation

for ever
braving the elements
that you are convinced
of monsoon
qualities

until dancing in
the dirt
You realize
You are like the lush
green plants

thirsty
yet in this case
not knowing it
YOU are found
to be alive

dancing in vibrant
leafy expressions
of love
and life

until not one
moment is lost.

Spring Garden (new poem)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Spring Garden"

by Tim Kavi


wondering about the Earth

there are only the glorious

colors, wings, of the seasoned

pushing forth

of Spring's new birth



gentle footsteps

down all of the paths

brings only the Mother

to her young



who is gathering eggs

that contain treasures

nearby



and dreaming of tea

with her tea set



until the sun greets

the raindrops on the

little plants



both she and her beholden ones

planted in the garden

by Gaia's loving hands



until all is revealed

in the gardens

of Spring.

Celestial Meadow (new poem)


Celestial Meadow
by Tim Kavi


gentle lands of rest
stretch across maps of peaceful
bliss of grassy green

my feet float on airy paths
of glorious silence
stretching to the horizon
sparse trees dot the place

that beckon to places
of pause and reflection
away from all the stress

away from racing thoughts
not just to survive
but to bravely exist

gentle bluebirds
of my Mother's voice
Gaia would you sing to me?
black crows wait to pick

but I know
that your beauty prevails
you will live longer
than humans have tread

oh pray
they will not kill you dead
for in your silence
they gravely mistake
you are not there

but there is only
too much noise
to hear you and be blest

but at moments like this
I only can gently walk
on the pillows
of your endowment

in the shadows of forest
and the paths of wooded trail
the stream flows nearby

into the ocean it flows
goes to the clouds
descends to the earth again
born again

to live again
and to see your glory
in forest, and stream
celestial meadows
where I see all my friends

playing again.

gentle raindrops (new poem)













gentle raindrops
by tim kavi

gentle raindrops fall softly
across glistening green skin
We and Nature
heartbeats as one
in the dawning sun

steam rises from the Earth
plantings of our love everywhere
gentle shoulders slope
of what tomorrow brings
in mountains of hope

in the passion of longing
love buds anew
while songs of birds flew
among the shadowed rocks

where there is only
the whisper of our kiss
enduring forever

the stream of love
and time carries on.
