Dominions bereft of peace to
fill humanities’ soul whilst
hunger takes children’s lives
the next generation nill
Amidst all this the
Poet will remain
Tidal waves of destruction on
precipice the storms awaiting
advent taking all nature’s
beasts of earth, sky living
Amidst all this the
Poet will remain

Yes Renee, the poet will remain.
Nice.

The scribe remains to journal the account of change. Very nicely done, Renee. Good to visit you again!

Indeed, the poet WILL remain. Someone has to express the loss and the eventual gain. Thank you for this, Renee. Peace, Amy

The poet prevails, and lives to tell again of the story even if the whole world is falling apart. This really gave me something to look forward to in that when all else fails, the written word will overcome because we will always have writers like you…Candy
