Favorite Quote:
"It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation."-Herman Melville


Lakes
Rippling without
A sound, while harmful toxins
Sit below the surface

Forests
Thousands of strong and
Long arms stretch to the sky while
Birds land on the branch

Flowers
All different colors
Some similar to others

Grass
Every blade crisp and green
Ready on the first day of spring

Earth Day
It started in April 1970
But there was no guarantee
Then 20 million showed
And then the plants really started to grow

I hope that people see you can appreciate nature without being a total tree hugger.
