This is a very astute verse that is also an admonishment to humanity for their blindness and arrogance. Your foray into the WAKA poems has been interesting. Keep up the good work, Kim.

I think God is so much more than being useful, I don't understand why people don't seek Him, I did before I actually knew He existed, and He came to me eventually, which is the way it is, beautifully written, blessings Roy

Comment from Regina Elliott
Hi kahpot, a most sincere and
caring tanka about our poor
beleaguered Earth. She is
crying out for more help from
humankind. My heart breaks.
That's why I belong to
Greenpeace and Defenders of
Wildlife. Blessings to you!

Comment from Jesse James Doty
This Tanka addresses Mother Earth and asks poignant questions about why humankind denies the usefulness of the world's resources. After she has protected and nurtured us for centuries we turn our backs on her and destroy what is left of the world as we know it.
Well done! Keep addressing the way we overuse the world and its resources.

Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
Kahpot,
This is a wonderful poem. It is amazing that people don't think about the earth and all it has done for us. It's a shame really. The picture compliments the poem.
Well done

I give to you an extra star for you light shines bright whenever you write.
The ideal within this short piece causes one to muse their fate being just a speck of dust on our earthen disc.
