haiku medley
Nature’s Bounty
Sep 1, 2021
“The goal of life is living in agreement with nature.” — Zeno (335 BC — 264 BC)
Planting vegetables
An act quite spiritual
Bounteous Nature
Flowers are pretty
But seem somehow frivolous
Self-indulgent tokes
Gardens of produce
Embody a connection
To Nature’s spirit
They feed our bodies
And nurture our wanting souls
Harvested goodness
Man has glorified
A bountiful harvest time
For millennia
Today we maintain
That tradition glorified
By our humble words
This haiku medley was inspired by Dennett’s prompt, Nature’s Bounty:
