Tanka “Help & Smile”

“help and smile”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

first a selfy
my face a smile endowed
serious the need
my smile often offended
army help confirmed
~~~
help nature the world
winters grimaces springtime smiles
summertime’s laughing
autumns frowning leaves flying
makes the earth a better place
~~~
waves smiling moonlit
prostrate now becalmed but live
life bared birds feeding
substance gleaned whistling thanks
gulls gliding through the spray
~~~
look to the sky smile
observer the milky way
look for hope help too
planet earth is begging
for us you me all
~~~
i feel your smile
your lips trace mine agreeing
truelove realised
nine months of help nurturing
twins double jubilations
~~~
roaring rapids spray
salmon leaping smiling joy
natures helping hand
calm reached spawning done
adults fade recycling life
~~~
summer gardens look
such colourful smiles
beguiling scents
summertime personified
mother natures help fulfilled
