Well before the fall
we fell. Lost to nature's wrath,
human indifference.

I love you and also like your poetry
Phenomenal work! Go Cathy! 🫶🏾💪🏾🎉
I love how you encapsulate a sense of inevitability and loss in just three lines. The poem’s minimalism amplifies its emotional impact.
My God, Cathy! What a potent reminder of what poor caretakers we humans are. Great haiku and good luck on the challenge!
I agree, 2nd line is autumn's leaves saying goodbye. But with anger. A sad day for humans. Did you have a tornado or something,
Love the center line! Perfectly describes autumn for me.
Well-wrought! That picture says a lot. The scorched earth on the rolling hills. Were you close to that one?
Whoaaaa, so much truth to this. It's the sad reality. Loved your poem!
Excellent!!! Glad to see you back Cathy! 😃
Oooh fabulous, you poet, You!! 💕
Ooo! This one is equally great!
It's brilliant how you have inspired the reader to read the word "fall" in many ways. Very clever 😀
Very 😔 sad , when human become indifference
So perfect, so beautiful!
Lost to nature’s wrath, so sad but lovely depiction with your words x
