If..

Author: cafetwo2010

If the earth is still
on its hinges, then
I have not rocked
the world
If the brightest star
is not cooled by loves
passion, then the flag
of truth is yet unfurled
If we still grope in the
stench of hate, then
marvel not at our
hellish fate-

How true
We do create our own fate.
Karma and the old saying of, you only get out what you put in.

One day never comes, but change is always.
And to be honest, I think change will rock the earth, Time will cool the star, and honesty/love/responsibility will give a new fate.

Cheers Cafe, thankyou for sharing

Hi Cafe,

When I saw the title I thought of that famous poem by Rudyard Kipling. When I read your poem I thought it was very Cafeistic...very much embodying your unique style.
