Cool Mountain
Aloha Poets,
Panoramic Hawaii mountain inspires today's poem. Enjoy!
The Potting Soil
Final burst hushes the bush
Worrisome undercurrent daily rush
Grow so much in such little time
The potting soil the nursery rhyme
Large melee a life of remembrances
Rocky boat of life's little dances
Sold on a promise smitten by a voice
Offer a window of one more choice
Sky high sense of possibility
The genial prose of sensibility
Vast array of dancing Iowans
Owes IOU's to tribes of Kiowans
Across the plains on a quest of gold
Plain spoken now where the trains roll
Familiar plateau with its legions of loyal
Once were America once potting soil

who are the Iowans in the poem?
Yes, thank you. "..dancing Iowans" is a metaphor for recent paradigm shifts from strict agriculture back to earth-friendly..
