In the CITY--SCENE

In the CITY
--------///--------SCENEs

This day I have only seen
People walking crowdedly about
And bumper to S-P-E-E-D-I-N-G bumper,driving
--------////////--------MACHINEs

I have not Seen
Not even
A
Single
--------///--------Little BIRD

Or any pretty Chirping or tweeting of any
Bird song
--------///--------HEARD

Not a --WOOD-CHUCK
DEER--------DOW---------or--------BUCK
Or ---------------////--------DUCK

ALL I  can see for Miles and Miles
Without--END--is
Cement paved freeways
With
Thousands and thousands,
Of cars and cars and cars
And
Many many many
Semi-Delivery
--------///--------TRUCKS

In a BIG
CITY

CEMENT
With
Congested
Traffic and Freeways
Has
Erased every
NATURE
Natural
R-E-A-L-I-T-Y

The wall to wall cement
Freeways
Have erased every
Woodlands of Forrest
TREES

Where  NATURE
Has  endured thrived and Survived
Foreveringlies

In the city scene
There are no fields of acres and acres of field  corn
Or even
One
MINNESOTA
SOY--BEAN

In the City sights and SOUNDs
Only rumbling road  driving machines are noisily
FOUNDs

The CITY
Does have
It's
Unique
BEAUTY

But is nothing close to my
MINNESOTA-WILD
W-O-O-D-L-A-N-D-S
With
Miraculous
GODGIFTED
Breath taking
NATURE
GODGIFTINGLY
Pristine
And clean
NATURE
Unchanging
MINNESOTA--REALITY
