Nature Unmoving Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Clouds spread across the sky, darkening the atmosphere
upon earth.

Life standing still, nature unmoving, not a breeze is
stirring beyond this building.

Watching with quiet interest at the cacti growing in
the courtyard.

Loving the way they reach to heaven, yet being bound
to this earth as we humans are until our deaths.

Taking us beyond the atmosphere above, clouds spread
across the skies, unable to help us here on earth.
