About This Poem
Magic Has Left the Land
The cycle obliterates on itself
Sand returns to mere dust at times
The ground turns on empty rivers
Calling for nothing that could chime
The sections of Earth go harshly
A sublime look into what once was
Where rivers flowed near the flowers
And trees carrying leaves brought pause
Now a lifeless landscape litters the scene
Trees are all but dead and they follow
The lack of vegetation that forms here
And life is breathless and is all but shallow
Magic has left the land where I am
No more joy or happiness exists
I just pray that one day magic can return
And we can rid of all the tricks and twists
