Comments : Heaven Weeps

    Angels are something that I have been attracted to lately so the picture and poem combo really spoke to me. Unfortunately I am out of nominations for the week otherwise I would have nominated it. Anyway onto the poem itself.

    For context I am an atheist however if there is such a thing as heaven it would be weeping at the sight of the world nowadays which I believe is the main point of the poem itself. Angels are the ones who are trying to protect the earth from harm. Humans are often self centered and full of hatred so much so they don't see the beauty all around us.

    The clouds and angels cry out in pain and within that is the destruction that humans are too blind to see. The story of the poem is one of sadness yet of importance. If humans don't change we won't have any earth to live on.

    I loved the ending as well. The implication that no one will go to heaven is great!

    This a great and intelligent write and I wouldn't change anything.

      Thank you so much for your wonderful comments Rayven. Watching the news lately makes me feel that humanity is in a death spiral and sometimes I wonder if the planet would be better off without us. The picture just helped me put some of these feelings into words.
