The power of... Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr., Costa Rica Dec 10, 2009
Environment , Globalization , Climate Change   Poetry

  

We cannot undo what we have done.
Cannot change our damaged sun.
To try to change the winds and tides-
Is where man will have to just step aside.

This world, we thought, was ours to rule.
But every king has been a fool.
He forgot just what he was here to start.
He thought the seas were his to part.

Now he finds himself in despair:
The growing tides, the still-born air,
The foods man was supposed to share...

With gluttony and greed he took.
He should have taken another look
as all his power, his wealth, his greed
gave a lesser chance to any seed.

He thrashed his kingdoms, led people astray.
They listened to what he had to say.
And did just what they were told to,
then found they were sold out, like you.

So what powers of nature are at hand,
that can change the movements of our land?
What we seek, who we ask-
this can only be a Lord's task !
As what we seek may be too late
for we who started this unknown fate.

Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.


We are all within each other. When that is realized, our prejudice and communication interference will be that of telepathic communication. We will be one with each other and one with the world. These bodies are only temporary forms that keep us restricted from our own heavenly place.
It is only a temporary restriction, especially upon those who intend to use their "physical attributes" with just the selfish, social advancement of themselves.
If this world had started to gain acceptance and understanding of all problematic errors within, we may have been able to share these "advancements" with our brothers and sisters, who are NOW--not later--in danger, not from the immediate natural disasters, but of those that will not surrender the help they need to overcome their immediate handicaps.
The ones of unshared power with food, shelter, clothing, and then to add the militia.
The militia could have been justified, if its intentions were there for the less fortunate, not to take more from the unfortunate.
I live on my lifelong work of gathering a pension, which is paid back to me only due to many years of work. Others work hard, and see nothing. All I have to Always say is "Me casa, es Su casa!", Mucho Amore e "Pura Vida!"
