blanket my bed
A silly old alleycat
keeps watch at my head

These things of nature
a mothers fond child
One chose their own course
wayward and wild

Forsaking the fortune
I've given to life
Replacing with darkness
pollution and strife

I send them warnings
they don't heed or care
Destroying my children
for the public welfare

I stir and storms
sweep in from the sea
Frown and my wrinkles
cause many to flee

Please heed my message
I pray you will hear
Dreams of destruction
my waking draws near

Soon I will strike
no choice to be had
One out of many
their story most sad

Create a companion
my bounty bestow
Instead bringing heartache
man makes me his foe

Stirrings

A wonderful, excellent write..

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
