His Coming Is Near
Upon the shores off each town,
Waters swell up as it spread over
The earth,
His anger,
devastated on what is happening.
devastated on what is happening.
The world needs a cleanse from all debris,
As rains pour down from the dark thunderous,
Clouds people running to save their loved ones.
Maybe this is the coming where we should built
An ark as Noah and his sons has made,
Save the ones who are pure hearted.
His anger starts to break loose
As criminals over take the land,
Beating wives,
killing the innocent,
killing the innocent,
Prisons flooded with men, rapist, thieves,
He washed away the walls of prisons.
Who keep these men safe from the outside world?
His voice wants to sing with joy,
But the lightning strike more & more.
As trees fall down.
Nowhere to run.
Save what you can.
The only thing saving us from the wicked storms.
The only thing saving us from the wicked storms.
Is our faith, he doesn’t want too hurt us,
But he has no way out to protect the world
From evil doings,
Striking seas swelling high over cities,
Lifting houses, till there’s nothing ,
but land just like it was
in the beginning
it will be
in the end.
but land just like it was
in the beginning
it will be
in the end.

Wow! That hits hard and its social relevence cannot be ignored."Land just like it was in the beginning it will be in the end."-this is eerily prophetic, hope our earth does survive even if we don't!
Lovely poem -dark yet enlightening-One of the best ones I have read today!
a very strong message! :)
Thanks for the visit!
true,
faith is what carries you through troubled times.
lovely entry,
thanks for linking.
Very powerful, you conveyed the wrath as well as the purification aspects of nature beautifully.
"... just like it was in the beginning it will be in the end."
In light of the shift of times and energy - very powerful, spiritual and realistic message!! Nicely done!!
wow very powerful.
wow very poignant ! and delivering a message about social issues too well done
nice delivery of what's currently happening. this is some heavy stuff. nicely done.
my thoughts:
faith is the only thing that can save us and not religion. i am against religion. i hate religion. but i love the creator whoever he/she is. like what Gandhi said "i like your christ but not your christians".
Purely apocalyptic image... Sadly, there's a lot of truth in it. People themselves are guilty and can lead to self-destruction...
Strong message. With nature going mad, it sometimes looks like the end of times indeed.
Thanks for linking it to poets rally.
have fun!
amazing piece. nature's anger is visible here.
Wow! well done!
Very poignant ending this! Lovely poem with some stunning imageries!
so wow! things might be hopeless in our hands but not with faith. blessings to you :)
a poem for our times, really...thanks for sharing your powerful message.
The day after that pastor predicted the rapture, my Girl Scouts asked me if I was disappointed Christ hadn't come for us. They were really kind of bummed out about it . . . until I brought out the juice and cookies. Then they pretty much forgot about it. Anyway, very timely poem.
Powerful words! Now I am a little scared that someday it will all be swept away... like the Tsunami in Japan.
Fantastic write - very powerful with a true strength in the words!
