" MOTHER NATURE'S PAIN "
A most thirsty earth, drinks in the rain
Truly feeling, the barren and the scorched remains,
Of man's misguided, technological, advancement
Tearing at natural beauty in the name of digital enhancement,
Confusing evolution, with revolution
Leaving, dear Mother Nature in such pain,
And Holy men and women, in tears
For, our planet is so thirsty
That sweet rain can no longer quench
The damage done, with power hungry stench,
By those who would seek to gain
From Mother Nature's pain,
But, an eternal health goes round
Running through our planet's veins,
And civilizations will come crashing down
As earth, heals herself,
With natural changes.....
It's happened before,
It will happen again,
Unless, we learn
From our ancestors mistakes...
Live in harmony with Mother Nature,
Or tomorrow will bring,
Another Pompeii.....

Hi Tony This is a great write,Tthe powers that be should read
this and bow their heads in shame for what they do to this earth
and mother nature, I believe mother nature is a force not to be reckoned
with too ,,she get her own back as you say, at the end with the eruption
of a volcano as an example and many more "Acts of god" as they say
so well written so well explained ... Hugs Debs xo
Love the warning here, especially the last couple of lines. It leaves you with an ominous, morbid, grim reminder that you are of this earth and mother nature can and will return you to it any time she pleases, it hits you with a much needed bang. This has such impact that it might be better than the poem I wrote encasing the same subject (you read Change We Must right?). Anyways love it! You know I'm all about impact and presence so I particularly liked this one, blew me out of the water. 10/10

Love and Rockets!!........T xo
Amazing write, Tony. Seriously. I love the unwavering, almost folk-like imagery you adopted here. Something beautifully yesteryear about the imagery you made use of. To coin a term, complicatedly uncomplicated, if that makes sense? Because you seem to have taken earthen, grounded imagery and woven it in a most beautiful and intricate way, a most subtle art that is indeed a rarity, in my experience. The kind of imagery you adopted here is what drives the message behind it home in such a candid and powerful way. Total brilliance, brother. :) Peace and love!
Hey JAIME!! ~ your comments are SO amazingly insightful!!........ as though you were capable of seeing through my eyes........ there isn't a better complimentary way to comment on this write......I actually had to read this to a friend of mine...... and my comment was, "This guy just "Get's Me!".........I thank you my friend......... Love to you and yours......... your friend and admirer........T xo
Hi Tony,
I too have seen the ever flowing tears of Mother Nature, her children slowly being slaughtered by the avarice of mankind. If these fools don't repent, and beg for her forgiveness quickly, Vesuvius will be "child's" play compared to what's coming. Great write, my poetic brother.
Peace, Love and Rockets,
