Prediction

Silence loomed; people were filled with dread when sunlight waned, clouds began to turn red. It was foretold that catastrophes would arise, moonlight fade until disappearing from skies. Earth would then tremble; from its axis fall. In its descent, chaos cause alarm to appall. I do not believe the concept, this prediction. It's foolishness that someone wrote as fiction.

Quite a write Jenna, you take us into the darkness with wonderful imagery, only to quite rightly rubbish the predicted looming apocalypse, This reminds me of the movie melancholia, by Lars von Trier, only it has a different ending, cheers David

Be warned it’s a great cast, it will either bore or scare you, depending on your life’s outlook, I actually found the inevitable ending paradoxically uplifting

What's our alternative but to live the best life we can each day, Jan? To do so worthy of His love is to know peace in our hearts. Thanks for your thoughts, as ever.

Earth must someday end, adjectives or not. Hope it will be for a long time though. Hugs.

As we now know it, Victor, but only because He has something better in store.

I couldn't agree with you more, Jenna. I am getting pretty tired of this apocalypse stuff. I could say lots more, but I'll move on. I wish they would, too. Fine couplets!

The doom and gloom merchants have been predicting the end since time began, mind you when some of these crackpot regimes build up their nuclear stockpiles, then we should worry, rushing through our bucket lists before the whoosh, lol. Good luck Jenna. Tom
