It
interrupted the sunny morning,
It
transformed it into gloom,
I
awaited the wrath to come,
The
Earth cried immediately,
Leaving
traces on the rich soil,
All
living creature hid from it,
They
were compassionate!
Earth
gave its last cry; the storm,
It
devoured everything on its path;
It
was hungry for sympathy.
It
reminded us all of the fact;
The
Earth is very much alive.
There
was peace in the chaos.
Always
will be.

"Earth gave it's last cry," ...very, very good, nature, your soul and poetic metaphor, who could ask for more. I glanced at your Reading List as well, good reading....have you read "Man and Woman He Created Them: A Theology of the Body," by John Paul II??? I think you have the mature depth to handle his vision of espousal love.
ReplyDeleteHello! Thank you for that analytical commentary! I have not read that book, but if you recommend it, I will definitely look into it and give it a read. Thank you for the recommendation. I will keep you updated.

Erick,
ReplyDeleteI loved this poem for the reasons of human fear and the power of nature.
At a time when a reawakening may happen, when the balance is disturbed.
Following your excellent Blog!
