The Whiteness of Purification

Aris Rovas @ unsplash

Clouds of gray fill the heavens, strangling the blessings falling to earth.

Earth, stained in toxic screams and poisons, invading crevices that lead to the soul.

Where has decency and moral conscience fled? Have they been buried under layers of hatred and anger, never to be seen again?

The souls of many cry in silence at their loss.

Blood staining green grass where red poppies once grew. Nothing but decay lies on its surface and death pervades the air.

Children’s faces, once rosy and vibrant, now filled with fear, despair… their futures are but fleeting dreams carried away by threatening clouds.

My brother, my sister, I know you not. Your words, your actions pierce my heart.

My days beleaguered in disbelief, waiting for a sign… waiting for hope.

Out from the layer of dark clouds perched above, purified crystals of white begin to fall. Singular, then multiplying a hundred-fold… until the vastness of earth is covered in a blanket of white.

Purification has begun, ridding the world of the darkness surrounding it.

This is the sign. This is my hope. Do you see it?
