MELANCHOLY

MELANCHOLY

A Poem by Julie Grenness
"

Inspired by an article, that we never see Australian birds any more.

"

MELANCHOLY.


Spring of silence---

No bees,

No ants,

No birds,

No trees,

Silent indeed,

Spring for thee,

Melancholy,

Eden paved evermore,

What we see no more----

Bees no more,

Ants no more,

Birds no more,

Trees no more,

Air no more,

People no more,

All rat race stalled,

Paradise no more,

What was it all for?

Good question. It really makes you stop and think. What more are we going to sacrifice in the name of "progress"? A very moving piece. Let us hope that we, as human beings, decide that enough is enough and start saving Mother Earth instead of harming her as we have been doing for centuries.
