This is a sad but true message. The imagery you provide is always amazing as is in this piece. You always do such a wonderful job with your poetry.

She stands on the edge of the earth
looking out across the land
Over mountain and in valleys deep.
She shakes her head as
tears fall from sad eyes
Into the rivers and streams
that man had contaminated
with their greed.
Where once forests thrived
Now barren wastelands
Lend burnt offerings
To the gods.

^ This stanza could have served well enough on it's own. The message was clear and saddening. It conveyed all the points to be made. Excellent job.

Very strong message in this piece. I hope many read this. It has so much so much to offer. Excellent!

Many moons and suns
has come upon this desolate land
each generation stealing
Killing
Mangling the purity
of what the gods bestowed
Into their dirty hands.

I really liked this stanxa.

Beautiful. You are very talented. This poem struck chords in me, because I love the beauty of earth. I wish sometimes that I could go back 200 years in time and see what America looked like when it was only inhabited by the indians, who appreciated the land, and took care of it. I bet it spectacular!!

At first, before I opened the poem I asked why a title like And She Weeps would be placed into the nature category and I really didn't know what to expect when I started reading this, but holy moly I really loved how you tied in some nature imagery, it really brought the poem together. I loved this.

The imagery in this piece is awesome. Reminds me of a Native American poem I once read.

Hopelessly discarding all
All that was good
Is now gone.

And she weeps...

The ending is wonderful......5/5 Debbie

Very good. First of all you used some good vocabulary there, and then you used some good repitation which i liked and also it had a message about rivers and streams being contaminated by man and thats really true. Good job, I'll be reading some more.
