The Simple.
Looking at things through
a kind of glory
I see in earth's tragic rape
a rainbow of sorts
as reminder that naught
matters but order
for the survival of nature.
So unified peace may spread
its presence among
worldly hunger for battling
with gratitude it must
alter the me-first attitudes.
Maybe losing indifference
to small gifts will
create more compassion
and belief will cease
that only "expensive" is
to be valued.
Viewing life with a short
sighted pseudo
falsifies thrill of true awe
seen in the simple
but unsullied authentic.

Good write Fay.
Good write❤️
I wonder if western civilisation will find more value in the 'stuff' we have taken for granted when it becomes more expensive as we head into an inflation spiral. Nay, more expensive will not become more prescious for we ever greed for more.
Thought provoking poetry today Fay.
