This particular piece is something I wrote while considering how I actually view the world( the environment) in which we live today.
It describes life as I have come to view it, not simply as a member of the general-public but also as a mother and wife.
It is infused with my own very personal feelings, whether they are anguish, disgust, fear or love.
Dreams envisioned of a world that may never be, guns we pray will fall silent upon the bloody battlefields.
Severed limbs, bodies mutilated faces contorted with pain, soul shattering victims of war….countless in their numbers.
The faceless of which there are many, landmines explode without mercy…. the warnings all too late.
Aircraft light the evening sky, another bomb soon finds its target, battle knows not time!
Anguished cries of an infant, bruised, battered and confused as into the eyes of his tormentor he stares!
Nurtured within the womb….supposedly free from harm, cradled in maternal love at birth.
Inflicted is the infant with pain and terror….the assailant all too close to ‘ home ‘ .
Innocence and beauty silenced, helpless is society as it mourns, held aloft a tiny coffin…. testament to sheer madness!
Into the almighties hands a beautiful spirit is delivered, he and the angels weep as we all ask WHY?
