 Rainbows in Water

Into Darkness or Light



 
Upon a moment
which life turns its  head
A loss out of proportion
leaves destruction and death

Some use their hands
to rebuild what is destroyed
While others us their hands
to enlarge chaos's void
 
Like the apple and the worm
though little is gone
It spoils the apple
but it can be cut to save some

The evil we see
in the streets that seem bare
Are a small piece of Humanity
but the most noticeable fare

They hurt what they touch
and spoil what they see
The hand of destruction
can be beauty that deceives
 
But, the teardrops of millions
that hold out their hands
Give what they can't spare
so others may have amends

As the horizon  clears
and the waters recedes
The beauty of Humanity
is to be seen in their deeds
.
