A travesty

I am far away from home in a land that is now foreign to me
I go outside at just the right moment and I see the moon high in the clear sky
And the sun setting in the background saying good night
But it is a travesty...
I miss my home and I miss my views
Here the sun is being hidden behind tall buildings all around
I see the reflection of the suns colors in the clouds but that is all
I miss my home, I miss my land
It's a travesty what man has done to skew the beauty of the world

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
