Thunder Warning from the Earth

Tears of rain

falling down

one clash

one lightning strike

a cloud splits open

As if the heavens

tearing with you

the sadness

the destruction

you’re making

on this planet

vulnerable

yet flexible

Each raindrop

symbol of healing

washed away

all the dirt

we’re making

on this planet

vulnerable

yet forgivable

Each lightning bolt

is a warning

to us all

human beings

to think

by ourselves:

isn’t it time

to step back?

Let nature

doing her work

magnificently

and creatively

restoring the work

we have done

destroyable

yet repairable

Give her a chance

to restore, to grow

to flourish again

some creatures, flowers

won’t come back

new creatures, flowers

will arise

All is possible

all comes from

one single drop

a teardrop of rain

healing rain…
