Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
And we feel and suffer in her pains as well ~Picture is perfect too ~
Very nice use of prompt. Nature crying. Wonderful.Melanie

Powerful, painful, wonderful. My only thought is that the last line could read.Her pain as is ours

Nature surely weeps as man destroys and ravages her!! The extent is so vast that there is no use crying over calamities that strike us as a result!! Nice one Leo!!
New ideas in this one – I lie the comparison between nature and human tears.
