Forces of the earth
beyond our control
we can only wait and see
what each rotation will bring
We can kill
we can steal
we can pray
but we can never
control the earth
Dear sir, you have very rightly surmised the psychosis of common man after witnessing devastating effects of Sandy a nature's wrath. True we can not control the effects of the rotation of earth but if we decide we can reduce the damage by preserving the ecological balance n respecting the nature. I invite u to read my epic of life-26 in particular and other episodes on the theme highlighting man's tug of war with nature n it's impact.
...and oh, how very true this is! Excellent thought said in this poem. Thank you.
true to the core but would have been meaningless if it wasn't brilliantly expressed by a brilliant poet...... thank you for sharing love payal
Expressed with pure reality, Sir Dave, Its always a pleasure reading one of your short poems, ...quickly reaches my mind The_African_Son
