A Wonder-Weft of God

27.8.2023

How can the earth bear falsehood and refrain
From striking back at those who willingly
Defile her lands and with venom stain
Her beauty founded on the land and sea.

The spoilage of a dark consumer age
That has no sense of purity or Grace,
A species that threatens this sacred life with rage,
Their filth and despoilation a disgrace.

But somehow from some dim and distant past
We know this world a wonder-weft of God
And all the loveliness in her will last
Beyond the violence of evil's facade.
