Cheryl Ann Jones (23/ 1/ 60 ) - Resetting the mould.



( Debut poem from my cousin from Cross Keys for National Poetry Day)

Cheryl Ann Jones  - Resetting the  mould.

The picture is motionless yet zesty
A diffusion of tranquillity and energy,
Nature coinciding with anthropogenic degradation
Amid endemic stemming of apathy and denial.

Preservation retarded by human avarice
Poisonous propellant of profit over planet,
Consumerist culture incite resource deficit
Global bruising, incontrovertibly transparent.

As fates pendulum, fretfully ticks
The looming equation irresolute and wavering,
Fragmented groups impede progression
Obstructing the pivotal sequence of recovery.

The bridge of transition
Cries out for construction,
Infectious momentum quells ominous foreboding.
Conceptual framework firmly embraced.

The picture now a magnetic jigsaw
Stray pieces conjoined and locked,
Strength and unity precede division.
The glorified dream, tomorrow's reality.
