Len Gasun Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Genesis 1:28

And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

1 Corinthians 4:1-2 

This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.

Save The World Today

While we know that the world is getting worse
As it orbits on elliptical path,
We, earth’s stewards still veer from right course
then give our mother nature wails and wrath.

Conflicts, wars, pollutions are prevalent
And we suffer a lot from climate change
Biodiversity loss... can’t prevent
Corruptions, poverty…now in wide range.

Global health issues are worse than before
Diseases spread faster at higher tolls
Don’t lose hope, miracle is at our door
These are God’s knocks from our repeated falls.

Pray harder and be guided by God's words,
Love and strong brotherhood  will save our world.
