Climate Change With all this furor over emails And the debating who, is right How can anybody question That we all face a real plight? Our political persuasion Or position, rich or poor Should not, make a difference We should all, try to do more. The ice is disappearing And the oceans on the rise Drought and crops are failing And less ozone in our skies. Caused by Man or Nature? Greenhouse effect from CO2? From El Niño or La Niña? Could they all be lies, or true? It’s beyond comprehension Some think, we don’t leave our brand With our burning fossil fuels As we desecrate the Land. We pollute our precious water Fish our oceans to the brink Don’t worry as the Polar Bear Is about to become, extinct. Big polluters fight the change Because, they don’t really care Their bottom line is all that matters They don’t want to do their share. It’s the almighty dollar Which will rule, in this fight Unless the people of the World Demand, we all do, what’s right. It surely won’t hurt anything If we at least, try to change our fate Though, it might not make a difference Because, it may already be too late. 12.11.2009 Del "Abe" Jones Mankind's greatest accomplishment is not the revolution of technology, it is the evolution of creativity. copyright 1984 |

Del, this is scary and I don't like to think about it...the poor polar bears...the future generations...everything. To think it might already be too late is just frightening. |
