North Korea's threats for nuclear war
Mexico's devastating earthquakes
Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Jose and Maria
What on earth is next for Pete's sake?
How much more can the people handle?
in all the devastated cities and towns?
When there is no electricity and
their lives have been turned upside down?
Mother Earth is lashing out and we have a
leader that doesn't believe in global warming
It just seems like every week we have a
new hurricane of massive force forming
North Korea and our president lash out
at each other over who will do what first
We're both set out to destroy each other
I feel like we haven't begun to see the worst

- Comment from author about the poem: So many people on earth are grieving right now for losses of various sorts. And there are more atrocities that aren't even making news coverage. I feel like I barely touched on whats happening right now. But they need donations and prayers. And hopefully the situation in North Korea won't escalate.

The plot thickens, indeed, in this well-produced drama. Do not despair, Christina, we are immortal.
Well our spirit is immortal but not so sure we are. Thanks for your comment
Our "spirit"/soul is all "we" are. The ego/flesh "self" is but a temporary instrument in our growth process. Step back and take the long view and world events will become less worrisome.
Thanks Christina to remind us of this insane thing that us politics. I don't watch TV because is nothing there for me. I don't see a way out. Nice writing here.
Yeah I stopped watching the news for a long time but the last few days had me hooked. Time to quit again! Thanks for the kind review!
You are very welcome. I only watch now if is a hurricane coming. I watch project runway though. Love that show.
It seems a prophetic title, and well explained in your poem. I've heard it described as 'birth pains', not of a new age really, but in an ongoing way maybe.
Erm, and all what Outback says too - probably! if I could unravel it all! That's a verbose cat there (his pic). Here's me briefer comment.
He knows , that cat!
Bit more! Well, I'm reading a 'Good News Gospel' short series of studies, also with poems in progress. It's exciting - not all that's going on in the world, and sin (must name it as such), but God's overall sovereignty and plans.
Thanks for your review orchidee!
THANKS SISTER CHRIS ~ IT NEEDED TO BE SAID ~ THANKS FOR SAYING IT ~ So Positively and so Beautifully ~ you are a very elegant Poet ! Mother Nature (GAIA) is upset ~ doubling of CO2 has raised temperature and the result is Hurricanes ~ Death ~ Destruction etc. Also ~ if you read REVELATIONS (and other parts of the BIBLE) you will encounter Famine ~ Pestilence ~ Earthquakes ~ Wars & Rumours of Wars etc ~ Then Christ will return to Earth ~ AMEN It is true CHRIS "We haven't begun to see the worst" How ready are we for the END TIMES ? Thank for caring & sharing BROTHERLY Love ~ BRIAN XOX
I don't know if we've seen the worst. Just look at the news. But thanks for your insightful and positive review! But on to different subjects I guess. Thanks again--sisterly hugs--Christina
Thanks Christina! We are indeed in chaotic times!
Thanks so much w c for your kind reply!
The two overgrown kids having temper tantrums threatening throw his big bad toys at each other. Wish I could tell them both to just grow up and act like the leaders you are, not the children that they're not. Excellent expression of what everyone is thinking Christina. ; )
I really appreciate (more than you know) the very kind reply you gave me on this poem! Thanks again and thanks for making it a favorite!--Christina
You're very welcome. ; )
a very well covered and wise poem. I love the thoughts you share.
Thanks so much kevin, I truly appreciate your feedback! Love the kind words.
you're welcome.
the beginning of the end,read the bible,it`s all there
Yes, some would say that, I leave it up to the reader to decide. Thanks for your kind feedback!
I'm with you I feel it too it effects all of us with no end in sight , you expressed yourself well !
Thank you WL, I really appreciate your kind comment!
Very well written Christina, so much horror in the world and it is now being enhanced by two meglomaniacs.
Yes there is a lot of horror in the world. Thanks for commenting on my poem! Appreciate it!
Christinie, thank you for this poem. It reminded me again how thankful I should be to live in peace, on a beautiful island, with electricity, enough food, enough work, enough money. Sometimes we, in the USA, forget what a sheltered life we have. But, it could all come crashing down, especially considering that we are well within reach of these rockets from North Korea. A sobering thought.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply, Fred! Yes, we in the US should be thankful but the North Korea threat is sobering. Thanks again, I appreciate it!
