Big Blue Ball
This ball is mainly water as are we;
touch Mother Earth and hear her soulful cries
and climate is ruled most by air and sea.
Stare into space beyond where science lies.
Seems plants and creatures thrive and then they fall.
Cultures seal their fate by dominating;
humans however have played through it all -
blind fools to dark dangers they are creating.
Nature's order corrects itself in time,
Arctic ice caps melt while world seas do rise.
Human hubris ignores each warning sign,
those wondering think gods see through their eyes.
Not all who wander are forever lost,
some who wander seek realms yet uncrossed.
