Earth Cries

Sometimes, whispered voices off in the distance echoes calling spirits, hearts, souls of the past listen to messages without resistance. Set in the oceans and the seas, land held fast inner voices christened in hearts of the earth questioning will men learn of the harm they cast? There appears no quick reply in death or birth slow and methodic land and seascapes reshaped only the almighty asks what is life worth? Mother earth rumbles down in its core once caped to sigh and moan and groan of all men mistakes without thought or plan to replace all they take. Disgruntled, discontent, broken to heartache earth burns hot and floods and slides back into place shaken rattles, fumes and freezes till all wake. Extinction looms until the gift of earth is safe and moaning, groaning of mankind's ignorance can evolve or can be easily erased.

I agree what has been done to our planet has been done in ignorance but now that we know better we should do better. Your visit to my page was encouraging. Sara

Loved this one DM, Terza Rima is one of my fave forms and you did this well, I enjoyed the flow, but the message is sobering, when will men stop ruining the earth? Very soon!
