MOTHER NATURE HAS THE LAST SAY

Nature has a time schedule

Which must remain that way,

So survival of the fittest

Is just nature's way.

So its safety in numbers,

Look out if you stray;

you could be next on nature's prey.

For nature has a food quota

Which must be met

And if she finds you solitary

Your time could be spent.

Her methods can be callous, 

Selections to be set

For she controls the kingdom

And the balance must be kept.

I agree my friends. I saw the Honduras coastline and I saw New Orleans. When Mother Nature is raising hell. No stopping her. Thank you Andrew for sharing the logical and amazing poetry.

"MOTHER NATURE HAS THE LAST SAY"
Andrew Mitchell,
Our lives with conveniences is really a facade. Take away our modern ways and foundations of technology and raw nature would be our only way of life. Veiwing the way of wild nature seems so hard because it is not our reality. Yes your poem reallyspeaks volumes. Wild animals are constantly watchful for another living thing to consume and of course be consumed. Birds look for food and peck on the ground very watchfully. From the highest on the food chain to the tiniest creature. I liked "food for thought" this writing brought.
Blessings again,
Kathy

Thank you kathy

[Kathy Van Kurin]

You are very welcome. Was my review any where near what you were aiming at? I try to understand what is behind the writers mind and sometimes just my own as the poem is read and assimilated.

[andrew mitchell]

You summed up the poem very well Kathy:)

[Kathy Van Kurin]

Sigh of relief! Thanks Andrew!

[Cassie]

you need not say that again Andrew. This one is among the most intelligent poems i have read from you...hahahaha..*Joking*

Philosopher, poet and survivalist daring to walk the crooked path through life, all because straight lines on a round surface is not his idea of balance. Standing Ovation! Clap! Clap!

Hi Andrew. This has the greatest cadence than any other piece I have read of yours. This is so close to being spot on. 4 and 9 are the most problematic for me. Love the poem, love the way you have expressed your feelings. Great stuff!! alf

[Dani The Unreviewed]

Yup, thats true. And I think you couldn't have chosen better words for this piece. Great work, keep writing.

[Valentine]
