albeit non red dually bullish

Mother Nature’s Mega Ton Herculean Force

A minuscule might each separate human, and even collectively

GENESIS RESPLENDENT

Verdant pastoral themes billow and flow

across this terra firma hallowed ground

made sanctimonious

from immaculate mother Earth conception

synchronized in a symphony with terrestrial

fauna and flora which life forms abound

via natural laboratory called nature

especially at the seasonal dawn of spring tide

where multitudinous existence can be found

carving out a figurative zoological niche

in a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds galore

idyllic melodic musical sounds

artist palette of rainbow blended sights

which twin manifestations

of restorative and natural calm

assuage auditory and

visual sense pleasures respectively

serve as psychic balm

against global threat

of life, liberty and happiness triage psalm

rampant in the form of diabolical deliberate deeds

After Mark David Chapman

with a .38 special revolver,
that son of a gun got his quarryman

he pulled the trigger of his firearm
