Myth of Mother Earth

Is there really a mother of earth watching over us keeping things in line I think there used to be but she got tired of getting spit on now she sits up on her cloud high above and waits for us to tear each other apart and seal our evil fates she wonders why we disgrace her lands like monkeys in a rage she thinks we ought to be locked up no need for lock and key trapped inside to burn forever at an intolerable degree never the less we shall live on reeking havoc upon this earth she'll stay perched upon her cloud until the crushing blows we throw send her beloved planet into a rebirth Myth, Mythos, & Mythical Characters Poetry Contest by: Virginia Frayer

Wow, Virginia, I think you hit hard on the truth here. If I were mother Earth, I'd be waiting for mankind to self destruct too. This is truly creative and genuinely compelling. Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn
