Wonders Of The Earth Poem by Belle Wassermeister

Wonders Of The Earth

Rating: 4.8


The world we live in is indeed a miracle.
Human life is a miracle; all living things
are, in fact. We are not here by chance.
We did not evolve from lower creatures.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Inspired by the poem
Wonderful Beauty
by Mario, Lucien, Rene Oderkerken.

I left this as a comment on their poem
and then I noticed that I had four lines
and all four lines were almost exactly
the same length. So I decided to post
the comment as a poem of my own.

Who are Mario, Lucien, and Rene Oderkerken?
To me, they are three separate people, but
is that in fact the case? They should share
a biography with us to explain who each
person is so that we can get to know them
better. Right now they have no biography.

Should Rene really be René but they didn't
know how to put the accent mark on?

I put "oderkerken" into Google Translate
from Dutch to English and it came back
"churches".

Google Translate is not perfect but sometimes
it's pretty close.

Sometimes comments make the best poems. They are written straight from the heart!
