THE MIGHTY WILL FALL


Collapsing Giants. Greenland. [1080×108] Photo by Daniel Kordan

 
 

 

The mighty will fall

that had risen tall.

 

Melting to the sea

where no one can see

the majesty of your height

or the last breath of your fight.

 

Please do not leave us now.

Don’t take your final bow.

 

The earth is a sadder place

without your glowing, white face.

If the mighty can fall in nature, like these magnificent icebergs, then what about the mighty among humans; they too can fall !
