Watching current, daily News reports on the flooding that has inundated parts of Alberta Canada, parts of Europe inspired the writing of the following poem:
Climate Changed?
The ferocity of the storm brewed
The sky stirring ever darker, we knew
The deluge of rain and ice pellets to fall
Will leave their mark of hardship for all
The minutes seem to pass like hours
Finally thunderous clouds let loose their showers
Each droplet falling to hit its target with a crushing thud
The ground saturated becoming wet beyond mud
The speeding winds’ howling sounded eerily of train whistles
Branches from fallen trees flying like guided missiles
The horrendous damage this vile weather will ultimately inflict
Once the storm finally over, a ruinous sight left to make one sick
Many voicing the claim severe climate-change is Man-made
Does little to remedy the loss of all that a Life has saved
What this growing global weather phaenomenon does enlist
Is for humanity to rethink its presence if on Earth, it wishes to exist
