What Yonder Folly Awaits

Hallow’s eve dawns and groans with a harsh billowing sigh, 
An ominous prediction of darkest things to come
As threatening grey clouds rumble in an angry sky

What yonder folly awaits on horizon of tomorrow
What more can humankind take of greediness, death, and disease
Will future days be blissful, serene or rife with bleak sorrow?

As a rare blue moon rises surrounded by silence of night
Let’s join together in heart and mind, bowing our wearied heads 
In reverence and pray for healing light of our hopeless plight
