Food For Thought
Mother nature do your worst
Us humans will burst our bubble first
On barren lands when we are gone
A bud appears for a new belong
Many scripts of the ancient past
Declare famine and floods will see us cast
These are scenes from long ago
Penned from thoughts in writing flow
If indeed it rains and rains
Its happened before and no ones claimed
For millions of years there has been drought and floods
But no matter who lived, died in bloodied mud
Deserts encroach on our continents lands
Where two thirds of our surface is close at hand
So much water could do so much good
When we complain of droughts and the shortage of foods
Conglomerate companies must have negatives thoughts
Vast areas of land could be harvested if sought
It beggars belief as to why its this way
Why can't the scriptures of the past, change today
Self destruction is the human way
Whether mother nature has her say
She will continue, long after we have gone
Its just so sad, we can't sing the same song
