ravaged green pastures -
anguished cries of displacement
to a Good Shepherd
alleluia songs -
resounding its echoes
rowdy thunder bolts
ah yes there be days
this is earth's behavior -

A heartfelt poem Gillena
Beautifully profound write, Gillena.
Ravaged green pastures? Not quite like those described in Psalm 23, eh?
Speaks to the state of the world today, I think!

Beautiful words.
Hope you are OK Gillena. Was thinking of you with all the mayhem caused by the hurricanes in your part of the world. Prayers for you and yours and all of your neighbours.
Take care and God bless .
" My shepherd is the Lord
there is nothing I shall want
Fresh and green are the pastures
where he gives me repose
Near restful waters he leads me
to revive my drooping spirit
My shepherd is the Lord
nothing indeed shall I want.
Surely goodness will follow me always
till the end of my days"

I guessed you were not in the path of the cyclones but may still have got a drenching. Keep safe Gillena.
It seems we may share the sane views on the book.
Nice take on the prompt.
An impactful, brilliantly rendered piece ... a beautiful evocation.
