    He has a right to ask those questions; I doubt if we could answer them to his satisfaction.

    another beautiful work. And you're the first people I know from Creative Writing Ink that didn't see the view as flames. I guess that means you see all the beauty in the world, which is NOT a bad thing :)

    thanks guys for these positive comments.

    When I look at the picture I see the natural beauty of our world and how humans in an attempt to improve their/our standard of living have compromised our planet.

    I feel this picture also offers hope, however! It looks like the city is being destroyed and the fact that there are survivors could indicate a new beginning, a fresh start. Hopefully different choices will be made!

    Thanks again for taking the time to read my poem and make comments.

    I found the picture to be thought provoking and inspiring. I'm finding this week's picture more of a challenge!

    The first two lines of this poem are the best for me - they set they whole tone. I enjoyed it very much.
