Global Warming

Global  Warming***

           ————————
In the future, surviving
Generations will pray…
From the cosmic heavens
The blue beauty,
Third from the sun, Earth
Will still orbit.
But, the survivors kneel
For hours
With their whole souls
Longing for forgiveness
Of ancestral greed
With its resulting causes of
Unimaginable mourning.
And,they will explain 
The Earth’s beauty blue
As not due 
To the oceans and seas,
But,in truth
(As well they knew),
To all the fallen tears —
For the all-created — 
Which still continue
In the rainfall
Of God’s weeping.
