Mountains touching sky
Mother Earth breathes in the rain
Moon bows to the sun
All symbols of God’s beauty
If we took time to notice

Just as time passes
So to do nature’s seasons
Winter comes calling
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Have we no shame
Unravelling nations and peoples;
Milling through their resources for our own gain,
Insisting we are justified.
Look at the dead in our wake!
Is this what humbleness looks like
Taking what’s theirs as ours
Yet claiming we are righteous?
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
A line in the sand
American politics
Everyone takes sides
.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Quiet of the soul
Where we all can become one
With the Divine Spirit
.

Signs of things to come
Unrest all over the world
We reap what we sow

He’s called many names
God, Rom, Allah, Krishna, Christ
All are names of peace
It’s man who is violent
Not the Gods whom they worship
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
The new dark ages
Through materialism
Divine supplanted
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Swells do roll and crest
Ever higher and deeper
In violent rage
Poseidon shows no mercy
In the face of man’s folly
He takes what is his
Via trident and tempest
As done for eons
Seafarers have felt his wrath
With their last breath and their souls
Neither steel nor wood
Doth offer them asylum
This is not his way
As he strangles his victims
To fill his watery grave
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Shake, rattle and roll
A song or a way of life
What’s the difference
In either case fun is fun
Why not make this our motto
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
