The Winds Will Blow – copyright © Penny L Howe, 2014

Mighty winds of Earth do blow
Swinging frongs move to and fro
But all in all what do they know
How our modern gardens grow
*
Waters of the Earth do flow
But all in all what do they know
Even as the rain bestows
What we drink – even though
*
Sunlight from the sun does show
Mooonbeams from the moon do glow
But all in all what do they know
‘cept shining light they send below
*
We mutate plants to help them grow
I worry much for what we sow
But all in all – what do I know
helpless, sad and much sorrow
*
when waste is all we’ve come to know.
What will be our tomorrow?

The Why About This 
Will we ever learn to grow
Something we will never know
We can teach our children though
A new knowledge we can bestow
What a great poem Penny. It definitely is something we need to look long and hard at, before we destroy this planet completely
It’s going to be okay Alastair, some more hard times to get through first, but then …
Without the hard times, we can never appreciate the good
definitely true on that one, Al! 🙂
What a fantastic painting! In Estonian they are called Karukellad, which means ” The Bear Tolls”

Thank you. I love that: “The Bear Tolls”. What an excellent phrase, so appropriate too, thank you for sharing,
This is a very thought provoking post Penny. I hate GM stuff. Why on earth do we need it. We lasted for years without it.
Sigh, I know Sandra, I know. Makes me sick just thinking about it.
No wonder some of us (including me) have a lot of food allergies and intolerances.
I loved your poem. Also I have added you to my website. Susan’s Blog: The Inner Soul as one of my favorite sites. If this is not okay, let know and I can remove it.
Thanks, Susan
Thank you Susan, I am honored, very much so. 🙂 xx
Okay great.

It is best to stop the mutation injection.
Yes, at the moment out of our control, Yoshiko, but like you I stay hopeful for change!
Yea 🙂 Even I stay hopeful for a better change.
