Best Rainforest Poems
It's true, I was idealistic when I was young
I saw everything in black and white
But now, everything's gray and complex
I fought for the seals and whales
...
Rain your heart with its inside soft tissues
The stimulus of the thoughts that from there fly
Every hour of the weaving dark dripping issues
Into the earth and up to the very high
...
No rainforest can hold me
No desert can leave me thristy
As I look for you
Where are you, love?
...
Living is a challenge
Life is not the same

for Greg Fallon
A kid yells "Mother Fucker" out the school bus window.
I don't think anyone notices the afternoon clouds turning pink along the horizon,
...
God gave us colours in our daily routine,
A clear blue sky the grass so green,
The colours of the mammals, all the life in the seas,
Our rainforest habitat they're all there to please.
...
The rainforest is green with its beauty,
It is pure and holy like the greatest palace,
Where kings and queens roam,
In all their unrequited glory,
...
Your world is fragile glass
Every day breaking like bones
Against the heartless pavement
Of this dingy city where dreams disappear
...
A loud laugh, a hysterical cackle!
I got up with a start early morning,
opened my eyes. I was in
my friend's house in Wayanad
...
I remember peeping in at his skyscraper room
and seeing him fast asleep. My little man.
I'd been in Manhattan a week,
...
Draw a nail from the wood,
You weaken the frame,
The wind won't be withstood,
Because it's structure you maim.
...
A FOREST FULL OF TREES
As I entered the rainforest the other day,
Where the trees stood tall and free,
...
celtic artists unique voices soulful insights
rainforest dripping flooding rivers of words
wet downpour drowning in layered meanings
bush time wild weather mosquito time infuses souls
...
I get off the IRT in front of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture after riding an early
Amtrak from Philly to get a hair cut at what used to be the Harlem "Y" barbershop. It gets me in at ten to
ten. Waiting, I eat fish cakes at the Pam Pam and listen to the ladies call out orders: bacon-biscuit twice,
scrambled scrambled fried, over easy, grits, country sausage on the side. Hugh is late. He shampoos me,
...
He swings his torch high and low,
piercing the dark undergrowth, green and lush,
casting a glow across the swampy places.
...
The rainforest is slowing disintegrating,
Getting chopped down for our needs,
And whilst we are all debating,
We need to plant more seeds.
...
once upon a track high in the Kahurangi National Park
it was not a park then just locally known Wangapeka Track
I read psalms in alpine mountains below alpine heights
...
My stella 44
Thy lap is my rest
In the forest of life a selfless empty shell,
...
Enthralled by programmes on aquatic life -
sun fish swim upside down when they wish,
camouflaged rock-fish precision-jump thus
devour prey at lightning speed; you will not
...
My life without
My life its like the sky without moon.
Without you my life its like a sea with out wave.
And without you its like a child without no name.

It is during these moments when,
the whole world seems asleep,
and the lights from the lamposts,
are burning bright for the foxes.

A jaguar got power.
A jaguar got skill.
But in its final hour,
A jaguar has to kill.

Do you think it's enough
a single dropp of rain to clean
the dirty clothes and his soul?
The ragamuffin was in a rainforest

A golden antelope jumps in a rainforest.
In the moonlit night the ardent archer makes his bow and arrows
But this time he is very sensitive about the rare deer.
He used his special arrow for the hunt.

andaman sea
the emerald expanse of the sea beckons
the thick rainforest breathes mystery
the weight of five hundred million years
...
Sweeping through the hinterland and the mangrove swamps like a whirlwind it picks everything in his path.
Rampaging through the rainforest like an endemic barring her fangs on any one she comes across.
Marching through the city gates he subdues blue blood and commoner.In black smoke the beautiful handmaid lies in ruins.
Across the land and seas she manoeuvres
...
Drove for thirty minutes to Subway Station,
Took a train for forty minutes,
Got into another for only ten minutes,
reached Queen's Park.
...
The leopards listen to each noise
Of their surrounding sounds...
On steadfast feet they gently poise,
Resisting fearful bounds.
...
In the rainforest so lush
there is a sacred hush
as the morning sun's paintbrush
gives each tree jade blush

1. Making a Poem Hat (non bai tho (poetic conical hats) .
A simple conical hat is made in 15 stages,
First, you must got to the forest
To collect young leaves of the tree named "Bo Qui Diep'
...
When I think of you,
I feel an awesome sensation
I tried strewing them all with you,
Pearls picked from heart’s adulation.
...
I walk alone among the yeast of tall bamboos
That stand as still as statues;
I caress the green smooth stems
Smoother than silk,
...
The leopard cub felt mighty good,
It was a brand new day,
As he surveyed the neighbourhood,
Intent on nought but play...
...
proboscis monkey
a golden lump of quiet wisdom
on the tropical tree
...
The black of the panther
is so intensely black
that in openings in the jungle
their forms stand out, instead of blending
...
Can one see hope for the future of humanity when the foes of Nature in business and commerce succeed
When our Earth Mother is being raped for her resources by those known for their financial greed
In South America's Amazon Rainforest thousands of acres of trees are cut down every day
The uncalled for destruction of the natural environment for agriculture for to make way
...
Nonmowing turns empty lots
through time into forests
Sometimes the most powerful actions
involve inaction

Wonder world, wonderful life
Everything nice, everything beautiful
From the many different people
To the many different lands

under the red moon,
where the black flowers bloom
thou shall lose all will
while many see wonder,

Golgotha is a special place with new fonts
Spuming ink;
I skip out from the horse-flies, and dally in
My thirty year old truancies,
...
The world is painted red, yellow and blue,
The world coming into every boat view,
Red colours each bead on red sand,
All cultures rejoicing together,
...
One day I sat on Santa's knee,
And he asked me what I'd like
If perhaps I wanted football boots,
Or a brand-new two-wheeled bike,
...
I dreamed of kissing you all the night
In a rainforest of fireflies bright
The cozy curve of your lips were glowing
Moist breeze of monsoon was blowing.
...
How blessed am I
here in the rainforest
with her myriad voices
of unknown birds

Daybreak found Mabee in the jungle,
Cutting his way through the rainforest,
Making for the foothills of the high country.
He paused, listening for the telltale sound

Hot foot love,
By the balcony then on cradle, sharing
The hots for love and hurt for heed
Portraying the beauty of halcyon

death is as shocking as birth
death is like fire and roses
death is as amazing as the universe
death is the final astonishment
...
Gap Year
(for Mateo)

I remember your Moses basket before you were born.
I'd stare at the fleecy white sheet for days, weeks,

a beautiful prayer of devotion
which reads like the psalms
a comparison with some
of the finest historical verse

Singing icons of beauty

Silken flower blossoms in red torn sky.
While a pilot wonders considers

And a new vista stares at me,
I will be born again
Turn all my street life

And if you people are my readers

Boys: who hasn't been duplicitous?
Wanting, rigid air roots, affirmed faith.
All-around love, it's ubiquitous
Who'll open their sepals them petals

The people of the rainforest carry many dreams,
They could teach you a thing or two about nature,
And about how nature affects people,
Because the globe we walk on,

An Amazonian rainforest.
Sounds of chainsaws
and the grunts of bulldozers.
Mingled with the shrieks

To be the extinct elephant bird
A Madagascar bird
Whose closest living relative in the kiwi

8 billion trees to grow
In years to come
They to flourish and show

To keep the dead safe from the body snatchers
Bloodhounds protected Dublin’s buried sons

Look out at his world through his eyes.

Drops seed on the rainforest floor.

From the hustle and bustle of my life in Africa.

Fruit and nut trees are spherical.

The writer covered the Democrat and Republican conventions in 1988 for the animal rights movement, though she was short on funds. On her return trip with her sister's credit card she traveled, sleeping in the car and bathing in motel and hotel pools. She had left California traveling east with 25 cents cash. She came to a Stop n Shop in Kansas and upon going in saw that the clerk was denying a man in his 30's the right to buy beer, though he was not the driver, because he did not have ID. Disliking force, she bought it for him with the credit card. Unsolicited, he handed her $7. A few miles down the road was a toll booth, the only one she encountered on Rt 70 between California and Ohio. God gave her cash right before
she needed it.
Another time she was in Sandusky, Ohio, without resources to get home.. when suddenly there was $20 floating in Lake Erie at her husband's ankle.

I never think of dragons anymore in
The unpalatable rooms underneath the paper trees
In the midst of a hurricane-
Why, I’ll just lay out here, baptizing in the raiment
...
See how I’ve dressed up
All in cumulonimbus and the yellow busses
Passing beneath me
Like hummingbirds with lipstick of tourists:

YES, WE’LL HAVE NO BANANAS
Bananas, now a monoculture,
everyone a Cavendish,

Listen to the poet ROTMS;
Living in seclusion, in the Cascade Rainforest.
"Don't wander out on the road in drunken ecstasy,
...
With my domain to make things clear... to help me and help you,
I've got a lot of poems here... a chance to search these, too,
Such that a keyword then displays the titles that were found,
Then visitors can spend their days with ways to look around...
...
While hubby slept, she, with a smile
let in her lover through the gate.
He was a vet and doggie style
was always subject to debate.

If some still have their way,
Yet if replaced, then more would grow,
Forever and a day...

a shimmering tropical forest

looking for two toed sloth

...
Dominica
they take the plunge
to get away from the human tide
