Destrutive Beauty

A creeping vine with beautiful blossoms tears down houses and crushes with inhuman strength. A raging fire with brilliant colors, turns what once was, into a smoldering ruin. The crack of lightning illuminating the clouds cracks tree and stops hearts. White snow, blanketing the city, freezes blood and traps and kills. A tame sea erupts into a violent storm, sinks ships and stirs a malice no man can tame. A beautiful sky suddenly grey lets loose tornadoes that devastate life. A crimson red covers the water and dismembered bodies cover the fields. A marching army controls the world. An evil dictator silences the rebels. The world descends, the fields burn, the guns fire, the people cry. Some things start out wonderful and pure then fall to the depths of hell. The things that are deceivingly beautiful fail our hopes and aspirations. We all are forced to live in discomfort. We all need to find an everlasting hope. We all are human and that cannot change. We all need help with our sinful chains. We may feel powerless against a marching army or hurricane winds that demolish a city. But hope is impossible to destroy, a seeds last through winter to bloom in summer. a single plant starts to rebuild a forest after a fire. A single person can't change the world, but an army of them can move mountains.
