Conundrum

  
   
    Bang the taut drum
       Thrum-thrum
        Conundrum

         Pound sand
         Ain’t it grand
          Conundrum

     Hit the bricks
     Pay for your fix
       Conundrum

         Drive off a cliff
         Life is an IF
          Conundrum

     Weather is weird
     Climate is feared
         Conundrum

Hi Gershon, with so many leonine bad weather events going on around the world including the very recent tragic Texas flood, I am surely convinced it is from climate change. The science points to it. Humankind needs to get it's act together now with more of us first realizing it IS happening and all hands on deck. Shalom my good friend. ~

Creative work using the word Conundrum. I don't use that word in everyday language, but it would be a good one to add to regular usage. Alas, though then it would be common. Sara K

Now there's a conundrum if ever there was. Keep smiling, Sara.
