'Walls Shall Fall' - 100 Day Poetry Contest Day 26
Welcome... To a 100 day journey into the poetic minds of the @steemitschool writing community!
Yes... it's not just me who's a part of this epic journey of daily inspiration and sharing... but over 100 others too!
I am so excited and honored to be a part of THIS INCREDIBLE CONTEST devised and facilitated by the legend that is @d-pend.
I start everything I do with Gratitude... so thank you my friend for creating such an amazing contest, and thank you to everybody that also participates and supports me along the way... I got your back too y'all!!
Today's piece is inspired by past events. The restructuring of lives that occurs when unexpected Earthquakes come and break the ground on which you'd been so sturdily stood for so long...
Things change.
It's only natural.
Enjoy!
With Love

Walls Shall Fall
Uncertainty creates quakes.
Grounds shake.
Things wobble and begin to topple.
Structures in your life that have stood tall throughout time,
Finally begin to Fail.
Faltering.
Falling.
The Decline of the Divine.
It’s a sign.
If these structures fall so easily,
Then they weren’t built with enough stability.
When the strong winds come,
And the Earth does shift,
It will test their durability.
Visibility.
Maybe they were tall,
Seen for miles around -
Adored by those that saw them,
Without suspicion that they could so easily fall down.
Because they may look solid from afar,
Just come a little closer and you can clearly see the cracks,
But instead of filling in the gaps,
We just ignored the facts.
A shock and a sadness was felt by one and all.
But the beauty of it is,
That destruction will lead to creation.
And as one falls,
Another may rise,
Built on sturdier foundations.
So there we go! Another day down.
I hope you enjoyed reading this!
Thank you for your ongoing support :)

When I read this I couldn’t help but think of the “great falling away” mentioned in the Bible. So many young people have left the church and many churches are folding or barely hanging on. Problem is no one filled in the cracks and honestly I think it needed to die. I’m starting to get a glimpse of what is rising from the ashes and it’s beautiful.
Yes the church is one of the structures that desperately needs to go! I agree, what we are building now during this evolution of humanity's consciousness is more beautiful than anything we've seen in a very long time!
This will be the golden age of freedom, expression, unity and advancement... it may get worse before it get's fully better but... we are healing... we are laying new foundations for incredible new structures to be built where all can live a life of decency at the very minimum!
I'm an optimist, but I can see and feel it happening and have for several years now - Now I just gotta do my bit to heal myself and ensure that I am doing all that I can to raise the vibration and through sharing myself with the world increase elevation!
Thanks so much for reading and your thoughtful comment... I am glad you enjoyed!

Very easy to understand but stays poetic.
I like how you used the imagery of the quake and it continued towards the end of the poem even talking about the cracks. Well done
Thank you I really appreciate the feedback... this one flowed nicely. The theme seemed to run through with ease!
Thanks a lot for reading and commenting. It's much appreciated :)

No problem.
Keep them flowing.
I will know how live in poetry more than write poetry.
This is a good way to live!!! Writing poetry will come more naturally after living this way :)
Thank you for taking the time to read and comment.

Wellcome sir. Nice to read your post. Have a nice day
I loved this poem! It's actually quite similar to something I have written this week (but haven't posted). I associated that with walls around our hearts - sometimes we build very large walls and they do get destroyed; it wrecks you. At the same time, with walls down, there is plenty of room for creation and improvement - so not all is bad :)
This was written so well! I loved it.
Amazing... please send me the post when it's ready!
Yeah it may seem bad at the time when onc ewall crumbles, but it's more exciting thinking about the next one you'll build and how to make it stronger and sturdier this time :)
Thanks for your comment always Jeremy.. nice to see you here again! Sorry I've been a stranger on your page too... been a hectic month!
Will be sure to touch base there :)

"It's a sign," indeed, @hartfloe. I've always thought the surroundings speak of our own nature. I liked it a lot :-)
They do indeed! Our outer world is a reflection of our inner world - That's why it's so important that we all go and do our own personal work and healing - that will be reflected in the world around us :)
Thank you very much for reading and commenting... Glad you enjoyed it !

Very good, hartfloe. We seem to be channeling the same muse this morning. Come check out my new write and you will see what I mean:)
Thank you of course yes I will go and check it! Thanks for reading and commenting as always :)

So true. New life grows up from seeming death. A flower withers, the seeds fall and a new flower grows!
And so goes the beautiful ebb and flow of the Universe my friend.
It's truly beautiful!
Thank you for your reading and comment <3

You are welcome!🌞
Enchanted with your poetry, brother @hartfloe. It is the poetic line that I love the most because it gives wings to our intuition and creates answers to our continuous questions. Excellent work!
Aw thank you! I am glad you had a moment to come and read and really appreciate you taking the time to comment.
I hope you will continue to find inspiration here. I haven't brought my poetry to this platform yet... I'm waiting till I actually have a following!
But I look forward to doing it when I do !
I hope we will still be friends then sister!
I look forward to reading more than you too... and for sure I agree... as poets we are painters... we just use words instead of paint! Perhaps more like sculptors - as the worlds we create are 3D and can be the place we transport our audience too..
Super cool!
Much love sister!
