This piece says a lot cassie - could be the world's physical destruction itself or worsening of human nature...whichever of these...we have surely lost the green unblemished beauty of who we are.

It's important to raise awareness of the destruction of our world and what better way than through poetry. Most enjoyable read

Cassie, I wish we would always remember that damage we do to each other and to our world, but alas we humans are destined to repeat our mistakes again and again-well done with this, maybe we will take heed this time-

It does not matter how many poems we write or how much awareness we raise, but it's only on the brink of destruction that people find the will to change.

There are only a handful of planets in the cosmos that are capable of supporting complex life. This one can't be allowed to perish.

Actually, this poem reminded me of one of my favorite movie 'the day earth stood still'.

Congratulations Cassie!

Congratulations Cassie! Well deserved win for a very well thought out write.

I'm so glad to see this on the front page, Cassie - it's wonderful.

Hi, Cassie. Congratulations on the win!

Simple are the words yet they carry a deep message for
those to step back and think...but none are doing that..
So well penned, Congrats on the Win!

Congrats!

A well deserved win. Congrats Cassie!

A well deserved win.

i LOVE this. I cannot begin to describe how much i agree with this poem. It's not that we can't change. It's that the human race doesn't want to. This is beautifully written

Beautiful :)

Hope you start posting again :)
