PLANET BRIDE

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

free falling verse
crashing to the earth
such clever caricatures
of love
I tirelessly draw upon
in my mind
dreams are but petals
to an ultra delicate flower
that life cannot yet grow
so in its place
hope's energy ever flows
and without that said bloom
and the joy that is captured
from inspiration's own loom
the world as a whole would
self absorb
into billions of selfish
little beings
sucking the very life out
of the universe
forever doomed
to be a fatal groom
to a bride that
has no other purpose
than to care for her
so beloved attendants .................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this for no other reason than to remind people to be a little kinder to the earth by being good stewards while we are here. I liked the idea though of the planet being a bride and we humans her many grooms. Some of her grooms are good, some average and some really terrible and some just plain ignorant of what terrible disservice they are doing to her as they live their lives like families who practice deforestation as they try to scratch out a living.
