Adrift in silent tranquillity, admiring a
Backdrop of nature's charm and grace.
Clarion cloudless sapphire skies above
Depict the state of calmness in my mind.
Eyes admire an abundance of blossoming
Flowers, red tulips, lilac lilies and bluebells.
Growing around lush emerald meadows.
Heart is at ease watching robins in trees.
Instrumental echoes of their chirps among
Japanese cherry blossom buds are so fragile.
Kindred spirits of nature entwine with my soul,
Lingering in the harmony of serenity and purity.
Mind is overcome with a sense of sadness.
Numb to the atrocities causing Earth's demise.
Overdose of pollution conflicts our existence
Painful reminders are shown through disasters
Questioning the actions of global leaders
Reluctant to change their imperialistic needs.
Secretly increasing their imperialistic desires.
Trying to fool us, whilst abusing our habitat with
Unjust behaviours destroying the ecological system.
Vegetation covered in pesticides genetically modified, yet
World is still full of poverty, hunger and drought with
Xenophobes increasing injustices for minorities.
You can only strive for global betterment, by
Zealously fighting the mental process of humanity.

Good Morning Silent. Hi. You once again share your skilled poetic talent. The Abecedarian format in its entirety is not an easy format to complete especially with the ending letters xyz and also to have the entry flow with ease without it being choppy. However you mastered both. Your theme without saying is lovely with imagery. Thank you for sharing your skilled talent. May the pen be with you always. Peace and Blessings (smile)

Your words bring both joy and sadness. The beauty of nature, being destroyed by the reckless regard of her worst enemy... humans.

Silent, your poem is so beautifully penned and I love the image. A great example for your contest. I am thinking that I will write about winter nature as that is what I see outside my windows and it is so beautiful, nature speaks to my soul !
