Notes About The Poem

Wake up Earth

Wake up Earth,
the wind has changed,
the clouds lost their direction,
the sun is scorching,
the rain makes 
its appearance as an artist.

Wake up Earth,
the green is becoming brown,
the landscapes are getting dress 
with the deserts' sand,
the fires are painting 
forests with ashes,
the birds fly lost without
a rhythm to follow.

Wake up Earth,
the sea animals 
are committing suicide 
for no apparent reason.
Travelling to nowhere,
just to be death 
on the fantasy beaches 
for blind people to rejoice.

Wake up people,
don't let the others to solve
what you should do, 
politicians fill their pockets
while they share 
"Seducing talks" 
with no facts to satisfied.
Meanwhile, the whole world 
is an irremediable disaster 
without control.

Wake up Earth,
don't sleep too long,  
your wonderland 
will be your hell 
before you can get dressed on.

Your poem touches so many important aspects of this world. Rain is necessary. Glad you get some occasionally. Lovely poem, my friend. Blessings. Maria Fernandez-Garcia July 22, 2024 at 12:54 AM My dear Victor, nowadays it looks like the Governments are corrupted everywhere. Here is the same story. We nearly have more politicians than people, and all are the same. This world is running in a wrong direction. Thank you very much for your lovely words. I hope you have a great week. Walk on the shadow. Here, it also starts to be hot these days. Blessings my friend.!
