Heard It Through the Grapevine: A Greening Miracle Poetry & Oil Painting | Abstract Realism Pop Art by Neisha Landers

Long ago, they buried the truth beneath the bitter frost.

Bound within the suffocating grip of night.

They paved it with concrete, assuming all was lost. And locked the world in silent stone, exiled from the light.

But the Earth cried out with anguish,

planting a radical seed.

Sowed it,

And waited in the quiet dark for the water it would need.

Beneath the breaking sun It stirred against the shadows. A brilliant pulse within the dirt .

The waking had begun.

Fierce and bright, the sprouting roots shot boldly through the deep. Calling to the warriors who lingered in their sleep.

Upward through the rigid steel, the greening miracle grew.

Drenched in the dew of morning’s liquid gold. The outlaw climbed towards the sky with rustling leaves. And wrapped healing tendrils around the systems, they weaved.

It parted clouds, scattering all woven fears.

The radiant dawn’s love rose fierce, free and unbound, their decree with ancient wisdom.

Exactly where our waking souls were always meant to be…
