Millennium Poem by Richard (Narad) Eggenberger

Millennium

Now the millennium and to the heights
In anguish the wounded earth in turmoil cries,
Her body poisoned, the rivers of her veins
Awash in toxins and overwhelming her skies
Polluting clouds of chemicals suspend
The rising miracles of moon and sun.
A landscape seen through a dense and darkening haze
Her contaminated soil from battles won
And lost by the lust of fierce and warring men
Whose need to kill and maim and rape and rend
Asks rest that she rejuvenate again
Her blue of lake and sky, her fertile fields,
Resume her evolutionary climb
With a secret mandate from the hidden supreme
Inhabitant who chose through space and time
This treasure hung on the starry boughs of night
To house His joy and fill the world with light.
