    THE LEAVES CRY

the grass leaf cries out it’s souls pain
feeling the sorrow of mankind
the plaintive cries of newborn babes
left wanting in this world they came

lives devoid of security
floundering in obscurity
so many people hurting now
lost souls unable to escape

they cannot heal one another
when they themselves are so hollow
needing something real to follow
always grasping at what’s not there

and so the leaves cry silently
for there’s no one to hear their plea
humanity needs help today
so let’s all bow our heads and pray

a most effective 'write'!

Somewhere in the following, this poet has about
'summed it all up' for me [in here my (alleged) "life"
is truly writ!]:

"lives devoid of security
floundering in obscurity
so many people hurting now
lost souls unable to escape

they cannot heal one another
when they themselves are so hollow
needing something real to follow
always grasping at what’s not there(!)"

applause!

You are a good listener, dear Paulette!

May the outcry of nature be heard and the prayers too. May we all awaken to LOVE. It is not too late to save humanity and Earth.

Very efficient poem!

Love,
Margherita
