"CONCEALED CLOUDS SHED TEARS NEAR TERRA TURF"
Deep within the core of our grieving earth,
It's heart's convulsing, sobbing, o'er the dearth
Upheavals, unrest, tyranny, all increase
it's agony.
Concealed clouds shed tears near terra turf,
cleansing the quilty.
Wars and rumors of wars, innocent
young boys.
Why must they die? Unspeakable,
Mad Quietude?
Earth's ground receives their life's
blood sacrifice!
Where concealed clouds shed tears near
terra turf, dead bodies suffice?
A mother's mournful cry, fathers, losing
their beloved sons!
Protecting whom? Or, 'tis wishes
of War Demons?
The earth endures patiently,
no protector known.
While concealed clouds shed tears near
terra turf, no love sown.
Man is self~destructing, life is no
longer considered precious!
He's lost his way, replacing blame
with braveness.
Cancerous tentacles of war engulfing
nation after nation.
Yet, concealed clouds shed tears near
terra turf, broken hearts dampen!
Earth's heart is throbbing, earthquakes
arouse those sleeping.
Oh, Please Dear God in the Heavens,
stop their weeping!
As concealed clouds shed more tears near
terra turf, graves numbering acres!
Buried with them, their off-spring, never
allowed to be born.
Leaving their children without a father,
a mother torn.
Please guide man Dear God, from your
secure path forever...
Before concealed clouds shed even
more tears near terra turf,
hopeful comfort bearer.

"What a cruel thing is war; to separate
and destroy families, and friends.
To mar the purest joys and happiness God
has granted us in this world; to fill our
hearts with hatred, instead of love for
neighbors, and devastate the fair
face of this beautiful world!"
`letter to his wife~1864
Robert E. Lee

You are a wise woman.....A family not far from me lost a son in Iraq...every day I hear of more deaths there and pray to God I dont get the word that it is my daughter who has been taken. 60 more days before she comes home. I never felt the fear and pain of war like I do now.
Very well done

The title of the poem just drew my eye. The poem really made a strong point. I wish we could all live in peace and harmony, abide by the golden rule and treat the earth with kindness. I tire of war, fighting, killing etc. Loved your poem ConSue. Kie |

Will man ever learn that war only begats more war. Hatred begats hatred, etc. Man is so greedy and power driven that we are destroying our own kind. God won't have to end this world. We are doing a great job on our own. Beautiful piece of work.

Critters, this is such a sad write. It's so sad. War is a very sad thing, because it leaves families torn apart. You did an excellent job on this. Keep writing. *S* Cynthia |
