Man-kind or mother nature

Thank you all for lovely comments:)x

I hope all of you are well and safe, M

Dear Michael the truth well spoken. I can feel your emotions with each line. I often wonder about humanity and money ruling the world. It saddens my heart to know. I could go on and on and all it does is upsetting me. Thank you for sharing and be blessed. Hugs to you. Add to my favorite

Michael! I've missed your poetry and message and sincerity in your verses. I feel so much of the strength of your character in your works, and I feel if more people could set aside time and read, perhaps they would realize the way we harm each other, this earth, and how we need to learn from this.

This made me think of corporations prioritizing profit over people, which has been a pretty big discussion in our city lately, with one place in particular that is using its influence questionably (a big employer, runs a lot of things in our city and has close ties with our mayor too, so it's been allowed to stay open during this time of quarantine even though it's not technically an essential business).

Love all of your spot-on and heartfelt correlations with nature and the reminders that being at war with others, and with ourselves, will only continue that path of destruction. When greed drives a great deal of humans, when money is worshiped and lusted after, we are in deeper trouble than many realize.

Well said, indeed. Some truly great lines in here. The idea of money growing like weeds and the flowers being picked for the graves is very powerful imagery.

I hope you are staying well, Michael. All the best to you and yours,
Ben

Well said Michael. This whole thing is insane-
