Great images BUT as you point out , our earth is dieing a slow inevitable death. Sadly mankind is killing it and we will parish also I fear, The polar caps are melting and they are what keeps our planet upright!
A poignant, apt, timely, and meaningful write considering the conditions in our world/on our planet, Jane. Thank you for sharing. Love, peace, and best wishes,
GREAT WORK, JANE, CERTAINLY A TIMELY, STRONG MESSAGE HERE. I LOVE THE RHYME AND RHYTHM, THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Your ending took me by surprise. It was complete u-turn from the delightful first two stanzas. It was like a kick in the head, but definitely well said. It seems for every step we made in progress, is being wiped out by today's leaders in Washington. And it starts at the top.
Your poem harbors beauty in its expression and cadence. Along with a dire warning that this is the only place we know of where we speculate on such things.
Infinite gazing into an infinite sky, it is incorruptible because it is so vast, as vast as the infinite sky and its myriad stars within us when we close our eyes. You are getting me going, Jane. Lovely poem with lovely thoughts.
Our planet earth is actually a beautiful place, but the greed of the humans are destroying it. They constantly drill holes or go underneath the earth to dig things out from the inside, and you're wondering why there are sinkholes happening everywhere.
MONSTROSITY n. 1. That which deviates greatly from the norm in appearance or structure. 2. The quality or character of being abnormal; hideous; frightful; shocking.
