Poem Artwork

The silent ocean
suddenly a wall of destruction

Sleeping in the soft sand
mass grave
1000 upon 1000's of souls
brilliant flash of light
spiraling in a world between worlds


Fragments of pain
deep
into the heart


Mounting numbers
of lifelessness


Empty shells


Larger than life
proportions


All I have to offer is
hope
in those darkest of times



All I have to offer is
oceans of joy
as dawn breaks

Reviewed on March 10, 2006
I don't know how I missed this powerful write. Sparse verse only magnifies the message--very well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
