Notes About The Poem

- Children of the Earth -

The back of the mirror ... that's the world we live in
            The outer and inner worlds are undergoing large changes
        Those who plant their seeds in the wind - will reap the whirlwind

                                      let's love each other
                                    a fight against poverty -
                                        the vicious cycle

             We are all born with the same dreams, hopes and ambitions
                 The exclamation mark takes over for the question mark
                              We must work for justice in the world

James Peranteau May 31, 2021 at 3:33 PM p.s...haiku alwayz will be about nature only; a synopsis uv anything really, which wuz created by Jehovah God Almighty, in the heavens and on the earth, uv the natural elements. And senru will alwaysz be about human's input; what they cause/caused, physically most importantly az far az us writing artists are concerned, our susceptible, our emotions. Love is a natural, such would be the Haiku, (unless one adds whips and chains) *winks

Sara Kendrick May 23, 2021 at 6:37 AM Creative work. We can not chose where we are born and to whom but we can only make the most of what we are dished out. It is sad to see the plight of others in other lands but there are some horrible plights right here under our noses. I enjoyed reading your work. Sara

Connie Marcum Wong May 23, 2021 at 4:32 AM Your words sting the heart Anne-Lise. They speak for all of us who have empathy for those who have little chance to gain a better life. I feel very blessed to be living in America, because I came from humble beginnings, but worked hard to succeed in life. I pray for all of them. Your picture is poetry in art. So sad. I am Faving this. Blessings, Connie xxoo
