‘Life’ and Other Poetry by Hibah Shabkhez The Society November 11, 2014 Beauty, Humor, Poetry 1 Comment Life Ravaged forests again take root Life nestling within the sturdy acorn Cannot be throttled Ashes reborn yield bitter fruit Fragrance scattered upon the winds Cannot be bottled The Old and the New What shall Lord and land and hall and bower Castle and fen and glade and tower Say to a world of Facebook and iron birds? “Well, Google us to find the words!” Featured Image: “A Storm in the Rocky Mountains” by Albert Bierstadt.
