Cement Mask

Mother Nature wears a cement mask,
One we have fastened tight. . . 
With buildings as screws in her soft skin of soil;
With pavement an agent her surface to spoil;
With sewers as needles her veins to foil; 
Mother Nature wears a cement mask,
One we have fastened tight. . . 
 . . .and her covered beauty shall christen the earth's blight . . .

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
