Our earth is struggling
so we weep
No drying of tears
No hiding our fears
Our mother needs to heal
Her scars have swollen
Her wounds too deep
Our hearts have wandered
Lost in her despair
Our mother needs our care

Good statement there - clear and unambiguous. Thanks.
Unfortunately we have passed the point of no return (the tipping point)...... would be easy to add 'unfortunately' at this point - but mass human stupidity lead us here and the voices which could have saved the situation (many but not enough) have been ignored.
Thank you for your comment Dave. I do try to be very direct with my poetry. I find it gets the message across more intensely.
I am not optimistic about the future of the human race, but as my daughter has told me ‘this is a reset of the earth’. It seems our mother has been through worse. There is a chance she will heal.
Thanks for that J. I may have to follow your daughter if I hope to retain even a shred of optimism.... Possibly earth will survive in some form once it reduces the feral species human to manageable proportions...
Caring writing ... maybe there is hope for nature .... she may heal
Let’s hope rose, let us hope!
Thanks for the visit!
