Bring home the waterfalls

                The Lighter Side of Human Nature  

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. ~
