MESSAGE IN THE LIGHTS

MESSAGE IN THE LIGHTS

A Poem by jeannemarie coulter



MESSAGE IN THE LIGHTS
with the northern lights trembling
rose to green across the liquid deep,
the light of an angel wings up to heaven
with a message of love and peace
for all the creatures the aurora borealis touches
in its dance across space from sun to earth,
and
from invisible microbe to sleeping grizzly bear
the message is received,
and understood on the most elemental level,
the only creature foolish enough to question,
 is man,
because he has lost his natural connection
to the patterns of life
traded it for,
and thus,
trapped in his search for civilized comfort
imposing his wishes on all other living things
yet,
it is a time of change,
the heavens are aligned,
and man may again hear the ancient wisdom
of ancestral races long gone to the next plane,
the northern lights move choreographed
to show mankind the way,
if only he hesitates
to see the angel leaving,
and listens,
 to what is whispered across the universe...

Wise and powerful words in the story in the poetry. Men are hard headed. World could end and few would care till it is too late. The poem words were gentle but had great meaning. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry dear friend.

Such a magical sight to behold.
I have been lucky enough to see the lights.
Such beauty in your words undeniably do justice to this natural beauty.

This is so lovely Jeanne, writings about nature are always special
to me, its pure, settled and calming. I have seen those lights,
and yes it is a sight to see... very cool Thanks.
