This poem captures my love of earth and the fear of its Apocalypse by Global Warming. It is a warning as well as a wake-up call:
The world so hot and bereft ,
Of life it ought reflect!
And people scattered about yonder,
Lest they be, un-fluttered,
And full of wonder!
Right it is for us to ponder,
And pray stop all and surrender!
Listening, so as to nature’s tale,
And the ill picture, that fortune does portray
Let not us, our future generations, betray!
For let them do, land and life, inherit
By seeing the bane,
that man does, often discredit!
Before be-gone, all that’s precious;
And all the splendor, of nature’s virtues;
Be fast, and swift and hasten,
Before be burnt, by the spark, of the
Global-warming piston!
To protect our futures,
And fortunes play part;
And awake, take honour, take heart!
Enlighten yourself and others besides you!
To the demon, that silently seeks, to eat you!
All that works is human spirit,
To stop the lamp of darkness being lit!
Let not us, the soldier’s work, belittle
In saving, mankind’s divine cradle;
That which all of us cherished,
And which, our fore-fathers nourished!
Let it not, that our sons be perished!
Be there hope, that life be replenished!
With heart and soul and love and work,
And not just idle talk and smirk!
The world so hot and bereft,
Of life it ought really reflect!
And people scattered about yonder,
Lest they be, un-fluttered,
And full of wonder!
Let not this nightmare persist,
But give strength unto us, apocalypse to
resist!
People’s minds and hearts do unite,
And the torches of conscience, do ignite;
To, mankind’s final battle, fight!
With victory and virtue in sight,
Lets give our best,
And make things right!
The world so hot and bereft ,
Of life it ought reflect!
And people scattered about yonder,
Lest they be, un-fluttered,
And full of wonder!
Right it is for us to ponder,
And pray stop all and surrender!
