Our True Mother

The ball bounces on illusion
And wobbles in pure confusion
In silence it circles the sun
From where I believe it was spun.

A piece of heaven we call earth
Gave us life and gave us birth.
But we are one of many forms
There seems no edict that is norm.

Each form was given place and space.
A case within a certain base
And left to fill a certain roll
No matter where and how the dole

But we have overrun our need
With greed and over spread of seed
There is no other place to go
At least non other that I know

So let us say for prudence sake
It’s time to set a firebreak.

There is much quiet wisdom in this piece of peace, Sy.  You took Sunday out for a spin, and set her mood back to think, again.

Oh Sy, this is a wonderful read this morning. The sun is so warm and bright here and the leaves have all turned the most glorious colors.

Why, oh why, do we humans feel we have the right to totally destroy such beauty?

thank you for another wake up call.

Hugs, Marti

Mucho Wisdom Senor'....

But.....doesn't the wisdome seem to always
come with the onset of another thing???

The aging of the heart and mind....Me
thinks so....Surely I have felt this..

=====================================
Your Earth poetry is a wake up call
truth of Mankind's graceless fall.
A toll of bell ... a wisdom's chime
humanities crimes defined in rhyme.

Mother Nature asks that we send you a thank you note ...
for the truths you wrote, we're all in the same boat.

A piece of heaven we call earth

If so...then why are we constantly trying to destroy it? Very thoughtful piece Seymour - enjoyed. Chris

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Seymour, this is so very sad but true, sweet friend, there are so many blind fools that constantly destroy this world which is our only abode and even more who stay silent and do nothing but stare and watch them destroy and being hypocritical of making an effort to save this heaven! (sad sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, you speak with true wisdom, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Sy

Seems mothers have the capacity to hold much more abuse then would seem possible...perhaps it is some wonderful part of love.
