O MY GOD ~ I feel a bit nervous ~ when
I consider what is happening in my World !
PUTIN ~ East TRUMP ~ West BREXIT in between
THERESA MAY caught in all the Crossfire !
I fee like the Old Foundations are crumbling
I feel like I'm falling with NO SAFETY NET !
My World has slipped its moorings
Modern Weapons threaten to obliterate us
We have lost the Art of Love & Togetherness
We are turning our Unique Planet ~ into
A Rubbish Tip ! Interfering with Natural Cycles
There is NO GUARANTEE for the FUTURE !
BUT ~ You are still my GOD ~ I will trust in YOU
Whatever the FUTURE ~ You're still my SHEPHERD ~ AMEN
Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ LOVE BRIAN XOX

We're all into sonnets today Brian - great work.
Thanks MICHAEL ~Pleased you liked it ! The 14 lines of a Sonnet are long enough to make a statement and not too long to make it boring. That's why I use them ~ this is Blank Verse sonnet and (if its not an acrostic !) I prefer the classical 6 6 2 form ! Yours BRIAN
A fine write Brian. Some say the 'O my God' bit as 'OMG'. Many may just say it as a by-word.
Similarly, when Thomas said 'My Lord and my God', in one sense it could sound a bit like 'OMG'. Oops!
We've got to catch a pesky fiend who goes around our town spraying 'OMG' everywhere. A phantom sprayer!
Yes indeed STEVE ~ In today's secular Society ~ The sacred becomes PROFANE ! It could stand for "One More Glitch" which is good description of today's Society ! I've changed to "O Lord my God" as in the hymn "How Great Though Art" Thanks for your comment ~ BRIAN
Scary Brian indeed! It seems like the world is full of children just breaking all the toys.........
WELL LORNA ~ There is a lot in ALL PROPHESIES about the LAST DAYS ~ and I see plenty of evidence hat the World is out of control and in the hands of FOOLS ~ Lets hope it doesn't get any word ~ I've got another 65 years before I reach 100 ! Thanks for your comment ~ YOURS AS ALWAYS ~ BRIAN
Yes, Brian it does sound scary. Trusting in God is all that's left for us to do! Great sonnet! Sister Christina
THANKS SISTER CHRISTINA ~ Yes there is plenty to be scared about in a "Lawless World" were everyone seems to do what they deem to be right in their own mind ! GUN & KNIFE crimes increase every Month in London people have no respect for other peoples Goods or Lives ! Thanks God we can pray - otherwise we would go MAD ! Hugs in the Spirit Brother BRIAN
Mio Caro Amico BRIAN,
A true, interesting, and intriguing sonnet! We’ll do our best to survive! The rest is up to the young generation!
Un Abbraccio e Baci...

GRATZIE LAURA ~ CARA AMICA MIA ! Last night at Church we has a Concert by an Italian Gospel Choir from PISTOIA ~ very exciting I was able to talk to some of them in Italian and they actually understood me ! Pleased you enjoyed the Poem I will only be 70 in 2053 ~ so I hope Planet Earth is still habitable by then ! We all need to be more GREEN ! Baci e Abbracci ~ BRIAN XOX
That choir must have been awesome!
Yes, GREEN, WHITE, and RED 🇮🇹😉
Very good write Brian, God is always with us though.
