Ken Jordan Poet Verse

Mother Earth

Poet:  Ken Jordan
Poem:  Mother Earth 
Edited by:  Sparkle Jordan
written:  May/1987


Mr Steel,
is 
asleep....

(for now),

It's
long crane
neck,

lay 
silent
on the 
ground -

Its 
Shovel-like
mouth,

with
huge steel 
teeth,

await
to
devour 

Mother Earth -

Tomorrow
will
come,

when 
the Sun,
rises

a
restless 
dawn.

Mr. Steel,
will
crank 
up
once more,

to
gouge
and
destroy

all-things 
in 
it's wake,

as
Mother Earth
breath

a sigh 
of
sorrow-

How long
before

Hills,
Mountains,

valley's,
and
streams,

all
disappear-

What then?
