A Serventisio Poem - Ere the Clouds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
yes, the stars shine bright ere the clouds
bright spotlights in a vast darkness
sadly unseen, above dense shrouds
in the universe, it's vastness
on the night when clouds give in, thin.
o the milky way, its glory
many a tale, told on a whim
ere it is no jackanory
tales of many endings untold!
of planet earth? it could be one!
a story, as yet to be told,
ere we must stop all pollution!
