earth

the refined cat’s tongue
is as fickle as sunshine.
and as pink as dusk.

the ice box of life.
unrealized climate change.
al gore as the bore.

the long blue shadow
trails the white polar bear.
an ocean of fish.

the rabbit is white.
from top of its nose to toes.
with a black top hat.

a sprinkle of snow.
frosting on my icy heart.
why is it not sweet?

ground beans smell of earth.
the color of milk chocolate.
my excited heart.
