Nature:  For Poets Old and Young

You poets gazing and gawking
You naturalistas wishing to infuse
Foot and leaf
Rise from your recline
On her bed of lilac and clover
Do you not see the shells of her exes
Under all the limbs and lakes
Has she shared her salacity
For a privileged partnership
You, you tinternist
Has she accepted your offer
To wine or walk hand in hand
I look around you and see
She does not even bestow her butterflies
You, opining over the oriel
It really would not matter
If you had another life or two
Until you see it common
Lapsed amongst her infidelity
She is just not that into you
