Original Poetry by DS Coremans

Gigan – Savage Garden
I planted seeds within a savage garden
not to grow them but to slowly harden
the generations to come learn from the past
and nothing but a reputation will last
but some like to roll after the die are cast
History is always a flawed rendition
of varied victor’s ardent ambitions
A picture will form in the mind’s of children
of a time before where nobody listened
When we choose to forget what is happening
we forfeit our coming day of reckoning
To our children, who we are supposed to love,
not go out into the world and paint it with blood
by then forgiveness will never be enough
This is my corner in my savage garden;
I work the soil for a future more certain.
