inspired by another friends WWII poem. From Mothers Day weekend 1996 |
As the sun kisses the sweet earth goodbye Arise dear moon into the sky Birds of day are predators by night Beware my dear of Nature's Plight Careful as you walk throughout the wood Caressing things you know not should Death is coming within the hour Darkness surrounds with it's evil power Envy no one in this place Enough to place shear horror on ones face Fires burn as if alive Fighting for that chance to survive God is here and may show the way Good should prevail, but not today Having knowledge the end is near Hating yourself for showing fear In the dark your heart is the guide Ignorance for now leaves no place to hide Just think of now not things to come Jupiter has reared his evil thumb Knights are marching on upon the ground Knowledge is power, or so you've found Lightning flashes in the air Laying you hand you know not where Maybe you'll live to see the suns next ray Most likely the moon is set to stay Now darkness has enveloped you Nature knows just how and what to do Other places other times Open that door in your heart and mind Placing your hand upon the soil Picturing yourself begin to boil Quickly jumping to your feet Queen of Hades for tonight thou shalt not meet Ready yourself for one hell of a fight Rapacious tales told by the night Stand up to see tall and free Sanguinary now you soon will be Time right now is really stopping Too many bodies too quickly dropping Until the sun comes into sight Upon the ground you view Nature's Plight Vicious thorns sting your face Very clear thoughts of escaping this place When did we do this? Where did we go wrong? Who is to blame for stealing nature's song? Xenophobia is the pact Xenon is making it's disappearing act Yell and scream, kick and cry Yellow the grass, before brown, it dies Zephyr is nature Zonal is nature protecting her home |
