Bring Home the Waterfalls

Bring Home the Waterfalls

Dr Abe V Rotor

            Art Workshop for Children before a wall mural by the author in his family

residence (Living with Nature Center) in San Vicente Ilocos Sur, 2017.

Bring home the waterfalls

to make it cool and green,

and grow ferns and mosses

on the wall like screen.

To deaden the roar of cars

with sweet hissing sound,

break away the stillness

where its water is bound.

Shower the scorched earth

but make the summer longer

for the kids to play around

until the season is over.

Lend beauty to the arts,

in painting, verse and song,

in solace and meditation

from the maddening throng. ~
