David Walker Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Buyer Beware

Buyer Beware 
David J Walker

The Earth is our patient host
And we are the guests
Feasting freely in a full pantry  
Steeling the linen 
Calling our neighbors invaders
Demanding justice to fortify our
Positions and satisfy our ambitions
Enforcing the bowing and kneeling
But buyer beware
Earth has its own practice 
Of healing

Susan Woodrow January 8, 2021 at 7:57 AM so true..there is still so much unnecessary consumption to the point Earth may have to rid us on a grander scale, like spraying poison on parasites :) David Walker January 12, 2021 at 8:05 AM Thank you, Susan. I hope it doesn't come to that.
