This canyon echoes rumbling rails
while ancient creek bed holds its tales,
and diving falcons practice fleet

this is a very different style for me, but an interesting exercise and a fun experiment ... thx, Balladeer, for your knowledgable encouragement, and all of the participants in the school of poetry for your contributions and discussions ... perhaps my only incentive to pursue triplets of iambic tetrameter, lol ...

- I was walking with my 84 year old mother on a restored prarie...took many years to restore....Suddenly she smiled and laughed and said "Oh, this is just how it was when I was little".....How sad that so much of it has been destroyed in one generation. Nice read.

- As my avatar photo I used the Pleiades; I am stardust; my seed, a star; my energy is of the on universe and my home; somewhere out there. If we are to survive as a species we need to treat Mother Earth well and tend her crops. Only humans take and use more energy than they need and do not return it. This cause imbalance and imbalance is not tolerated by the universe.

- Wow! I am glad I decide to check this one out. You have a profound way with word imagery and you seem to not have a problem making feeling flow strongly with those word. Powerful message, powerfully done. My Cherokee Grandfather would have loved this one too. Thank you so much for sharing it and keep on writing!
