The Final Word Poem by louis rams

The Final Word

Rating: 5.0


while looking up at the stars in the sky
i saw a light flicker by.
i jumped up startled as to what it could be
so i searched the sky very slowly.
than high in the sky i saw that light
coming down slowly and getting bright.
it appeared to be a flight of steps coming down
and someone at the top not making a sound.
he slowly descended until i could see
that it was an angel with wings so large and white.
my-oh-my! what a sight.

and as he got to the bottom he said to me
the lord sees so much suffering and aches and pains
and he is not the one to blame.
man has created this hell on earth
there are so many wars in different nations
this is only mans creations.
why can''t humanity see all it has done
that global warming is blocking the sun.
i have given you everything that you need to survive
but you choose to live a lie.
i gave you fruits and vegetables and grain and wheat
everything you need to eat.
i gave you water for thirst
sea creatures and land animals to feed your hunger
did i make a blunder?
why can't you enjoy the fruits of life
and stop destroying the world i created.
with all your technology you still fail to see.
that this is not what was meant to be.
this world was created to give you all that you
could possibly want or need
but you choose your selfish greed
so before my angels start to depart
i tell you this'take heart'.
accept all that i have given you
before it destroys you.

GOD told Adam & Eve to tend the garden. WAR the first one was Cain killing his brother Abel. It all just grew with more people

I know our God sees all the thirst, hunger and pain and with His tears brings earths cleansing rain. To clean the earth and sky above so that mankind can see, all of God's love. Ten on your poem! God Bless, Linda
