I Pray For a Sign

I PRAY FOR A SIGN Lost in the world I see no vision Amidst my fellow men I see subdivision Death is but a necessity and not a decision The world is doomed, God heeds to no admission Tears tainted on the faces of the unborn Our world is doomed as our mothers still mourn Crying day and night we hope for a new dawn A better tomorrow is as good as a light at the end of the tunnel unknown Mother deliberately drowns her new born in hot boiling water While a father rapes his one and only five year old daughter The world is at end as we are bound for the slaughter Be warned of the last days because we are still in the last quarter Voices of sorrow echo inside my head My heart bleeds more, each time children are pronounced dead The wars we started never to end Is this the life that of which we shall die? Like we never cared… Email: sibusisolubimbi@yahoo.com

Sibusiso, this world just doesn't seem to care anymore. There are very few of us that do and want to write about it. Well done. :O) Keep up with the great work. Keep on penning. Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful and creative talents with us. We all truly appreciate it. *S* Cynthia

The sign is in your poem: a sign of talent and magic reverberation like in Passacaglia by Webern.Best regards,OB
