The sun radiates infinity,
the ocean throbs with
rapture, and then erupts
with searing ecstasy. The
wind expels the raw lust of
nature. Morning dances in
the valley, sunrays like purple
fire against the mountains
blend with the mist that rises
to meet the clouds. The earth
quivers trying to free itself from
the madness within its molten
belly. It is Mother Nature’s daily
ritual as the world overdoses on
the turmoil racing across a land of
human design.

I love this! especially the final lines. Such an eloquent way to portray our current environmental situation ( I am not saying that was your intent, that is what I took from it.) great job.

Unfortunately overdose of madness seems the norm in this world and nothing to be shocked about.

Yes, the concept was to point out the obvious of our times; I never thought of the piece as having a shock factor. Thanks for the comment. Ann

Thank you Maryrose, it mean a great deal to hear this from you. Many times when you pull a feeling from deep within yourself and a “short” one I never know how it will be conceived. Thank you again, Ann
