Ancient mountains brood
dominating the landscape
with majestic face

Eagle spirits fall to the ground
Dream wings cannot fly
Dark talons pierce the soul
The heart languishes in hells nest
A shrill cry of despair echo's
through life's canyon..
'Oh, how the mighty have fallen..!'

Small spindly pear tree
overwhelmed with lovely fruit
strong enough to bend

About this poem:
IF YOU GO AND CLICK ON POST A COMMENT the whole tree shows up its awesome.. My little pear tree..
I was just mowing my grass.( 3 acres) I notices my little pear tree. its only 4 feet tall 4 inches at the base 2 lonely branches coming off the base and little twigs coming off that the the branches are like 2 inches around at the most.. I almost cut it down a few years back because i was sure it was dead.. I just didn't have the heart.. It is so loaded with pears at least 50 that is bent completely over touching the ground..
I have been so overwhelmed with my own grief and locked inside my depression I never noticed or I would have found a wedge for the 2 lonely branches..
Nature never ceases to amaze me.

Prevailing and Trade Winds blow
Ever engulfing above and below hemisphere split
Amidst mercury now in reform

As earthquakes rumble
expand to split the surface
lives engulfed by loss
Tsunami washes
the earth’s crust while salty tears
seep into the core
Hearts shaken, broken
lovely lives drowned, buried, as
seasons’ sun radiates.
Still underneath skin
hope courses veins, awaiting.
Spring, where is thy bloom?

Bombs explode spring air
Pellets break skin, sever lives
elusive peace, come.

Glittering silver
shooting star arches the sky
disappearing fast

Shimmery wings spread
Golden halo on her head
She captures my heart
her aura so dazzling bright
she bestowed a peaceful smile

Catch a gentle breeze
Beautiful sunset warms heart
Orange leaves turn brown

Softly the rain falls
coating the orchid in dew
its buds glistening
