Firestorms
A. W. Nutter
Firestorms struck, killing man kind
Ivory towers quickly turning to dust
Treasures and fortunes all left behind
Melting, burning and gathering rust
Nuclear winter, locks the world in ice
Destroying the rest of God's creation
Man's destruction brought on from vice
Fitting testimonial to his depravation
Sun unable to penetrate the clouds
The rain continuing its endless siege
Cleansing the once fertile grounds
Nature reclaiming her lost heritage
Forests grow, at accelerated rates
No longer barren, fields turn green
Animals, the only creatures God creates
To inhabit the new garden of Eden
