End of the Beginning

I keep hearing that this is

The Beginning of the End

 I’d like to challenge that.

WHAT IF

We are being prepared for

The End of the Beginning?

A cleansing of the Earth’s soul

Exploding it’s fury but forgiving

To give us yet another chance

To end famine, war, hate

Pollution, crime and other human nonsense

WHAT IF

Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires,

Erupting volcanoes and earthquakes

Were the only way that we could see

To notice with concern, pay attention

Learn to listen to Mother Earth

WHAT IF

This is the end of an era

The end of what we know today?

WHAT IF

We are evolving as humans

As we evolved from the Stone Age

Copper Age, Bronze and Iron

WHAT IF

We are progressing into a community

Of loving, peaceful, respectful people

Kind, sharing and caring

WHAT IF

We come together as people

Take care of each other

Enjoy each other’s presents

Appreciate all life

And all the things that make us great

WHAT IF….
The Earth is in labour

And it’s meant to be a bit painful

But all will be okay

Because what we get in the end

Is wonderful.
