Forgive Us - A Poem

Forgive Us

Its vast blue beauty splattered with pureness
Its glorious fountains spreading brightness
Its calming howls, its lovely echoes
It is beauty and its beauty defines it
Such magnificence!

Its blue-green silk flowing, drifting lightly
Its greens breathes of life and security
Its soothing glow, its quiet shout, serenity
It is life and life is it, the circle defines it
Such fascination!

Destruction, chaos, annihilation
Despair, fear, panic, agitation
Its red body perfected with yellow spikes
It brings terror, it brings destruction
Such horridness!

Warmth, happiness, calmness
Safety, shelter, security, home
It dances with its yellow partners
Its bright red body is a source
Such amazement!

Ah, life!
If only we knew how to appreciate it
If only we knew the beauty of it
Perhaps it might comfort us
Perhaps, perhaps.

Ah, God!
Let thy tears wash our tainted lands
Let thy pureness cleanse us.
Let thou be our guide, our way of life
Forgive us, our sins unto thee.

Forgive us, forgive us
We art only human
Forgive us, relent thy rage
Our sins art sad and unforgiving
Even so, forgive us.

-by Jaclyn

What have we done to our dear earth? What has our earth done to deserve such hostility, such damage? Are we sinners? Can we be forgiven?
Let us hope, one day, we will change our ways and one day, God will forgive our sins.
We are wrong, have we not damaged the earth enough? Why do we keep hurting her?
If you want to help, you will change. You will change so that you will be able to help. To help our dear earth. Maybe not so, but you will help others and others will help you.
