Time to Heal

James Michael

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!
