Warning Reticulate or fix the stake This misanthrope would fix a wake He is the wind now moves the swell And the movement leads straight to hell. The larger mass must stop and think We sit upon the very brink. Apocalypse is set to ride There is no place for us to hide. It’s now or never stand up tall Hear and see the signs that call It leaps in every wave of light The reapers blade that sweeps the night If not for now then future time Ring those bells of warnings chime. We must revolt with timely speed The time is now with jolt and deed. And if you cannot leave your nest Than God will grant you do your best. |

Seymour darling heart this is exceptional, it truly is one of your deeper meaning ones that call on the human race to take stock of what is we are doing to Mother Earth. Whenever you raise the banner of awareness, I’m forced to re-evaluate the meaning of life. This is exceptional writing as always your writing is so very very special and I love it utterly. You know when I do eventually get in here I run as fast as my little fingers can carry me to your poem, where in contentment I sit myself down at the feet of the master and gaze in wonder at you. drinking in the sparkling air that is finer, and more rarefied around you than almost anywhere else. What I’m trying to say and taking far too long about it is I love your writing. This is another of your utter delights and I love it utterly utterly utterly. as always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Sy...I try my best most every day e'en though by end I'm frayed for it seems on air to float that others think to get my goat but I'll persist, I know I will as I lean on windowsill and hear the words that poets speak that for the better, I shall seek so let me walk beside the you that holds the fantasy I would view |

Reticulate or fix the stake This misanthrope would fix a wake He is the wind now moves the swell And the movement leads straight to hell. The larger mass must stop and think We sit upon the very brink. Apocalypse is set to ride There is no place for us to hide. ================================= And if you cannot leave your nest Than God will grant you do your best. =================================== All warnings should be so poetically poignant and so clever of vocabulary and cadence. That first verse stands alone in its impact, imagery and intend...very cool penning me Stinkylove. You keep writing like this and Mother Nature is gonna fall for ya like Tinkerbell did *ww* If all the tear drops went to heaven |

If not for now then future time Ring those bells of warnings chime. We must revolt with timely speed The time is now with jolt and deed. What an exquisite warning, Sy... so perfectly true so perfectly written Our environment is fast becoming an endangered ecosystem. ~ hugs from an endangered rodent Lyra |
