Man Lives, Nature Stands and Sweet Earth Survives

Man Lives, Nature Stands And Sweet Earth Survives


Man lives on, by moments in night and day,
oft raging beast of red dust.
World fights back- come with what it may,
man lives on, for we must.

Nature stands eternal, and quietly balks,
slowly moving, power displayed.
Watching man's foolish ways and talk,
destruction so proudly made.

Sweet earth survives, as it rightly should,
despite its great marauding beast.
Deep destroyer of sky, stone and wood,
ravenous devil looking to feast.

Man lives, Nature stands and sweet earth survives.
While we live with massive greed ruling our lives!

Robert J. Lindley, 5-17-2017


NOTE:

Man lives on,

Nature stands eternal,

Sweet earth survives,


FOR HOW LONG?????
FOR
HOW
LONG

Eric Boddie May 19, 2017 at 8:54 AM as we proceed we are embarked by greed instead of what we actually need because satan can only deceive in an effort to destroy what we believe because of the devastation of the lie so take heed....great write as always mr lindley....
