Best End Of The World Poems
End of the WorldSuppose the world might come to an end tonight
The earth, as we know it, heaving a last gasping sigh,
Whether by divine providence, or some fool’s delight,
We have no way of knowing when the time is nigh.
The earth, as we know it, heaving a last gasping...

At the End of the WorldAt the end of the world great bears sleep under drifts,
Cardinal crowned Cranes sing and dance in joyous union.
Long winters blossomed by colourful spring and autumn.
Sweet summers vibrate with labouring European bees
As rowdy Sika deer wander this hardy land of contrasts.
Dragons breath seeps from...

The End of the WorldSweet song of humanity, play on
apparently, we still ain't gone
global catastrophe seems eminent
yet bars and parties are still prominent
a question of when, not if
that's what the epidemiologist insists
the bees have died
the brokers cried
but we play on...

End of the World“ The end of the world”
Planets are like just round balls
One day they all have to fall
Heaven or hell
That day angles would ring justice bells
Then we would be wordless
The life we started there would be timeless
The graves would rise again
With a little hope of...

What If It Was The End Of The World?In twilight's grasp, the world meets its demise,
Oh, Christian soul, who claims the sacred name,
Within God's church, where fervent spirits rise,
Contemplate now, the end, a burning flame.
What if it was the end, the final call,
Would jests and levity your stance define?
Regret, a haunting echo, would...

The End of the WorldIn this world we seek wealth and that better life
Finding lies, debt, plague and fear, in this forest of strife
Spirit weak, hopeless, afraid to answer when any query is raised
behind apathy and delusion hide, thinking earth will be unfazed
See the deadly...

The End of the WorldEvery moment closer towards the sun we go.
We are approaching at the speed our finger nails grow.
Inevitably we will be so close to the sun
that it will vaporize everything, everyone.
Our beloved planet earth will all be gone.
On the bright side you may also want to...

End of the World5 billion years have passed
Society is long since gone
The sun is now so vast
The Earth has its final dawn
Life has withered away
Leaving ruins in its wake
Memories fade in decay
A world that we forsake
Far away on another rock
Humans made their home
Still we avert death’s clock
As the...

End of the WorldA screech-owl sounds in the distance,
Maybe two miles away.
He signals:
The trees understand.
There is no time here for drooping
Or hanging like a bat.
Why do owls screech, anyway?
It is a mystery
Known only to the forest,
Which waits for the drama
to unfold
Like a bird's wing taking flight.
There are no...

End of the WorldIf the end of the world was near
I would shift into a different gear
I’d jump in my car
And drive to a bar
A drink a whole barrel of beer...

The End of the World Just In TimeI was watching a TV debate
The programme was running too late
Several topics had to be discussed
The participants they would not be rushed
The studio lights were set low
As arguments swept to and fro
Fingers pointing and tempers got lost
In this satire of low budget cost
Political issues...

Covid Madness Sweeps Through the WorldCovid madness sweeps through the world
General Corona
unleashes his army
the invisible army
upon the world
killing millions
in its wake
spreading chaos and death
as he rides in
on the black horse of death
harbinger of the end of days
destroyer of worlds
ending of the world
revelations come to life
covid19...

Saudade For Friends I Have LostSaudade for friends I have lost
as I get older
I lose more people
every year
more people I knew
have died moving on
and I mourn their lost friendship
wished I had been
a better friend for them
and knew them better
and with the corona virus
spreading around the world
I will lose...
