Impending

We are not alone
comets and meteorites
unwelcomed guests
the eventual outcome
cataclysmically, quiet

The outlook after 
our lands in sporadic grief
the sun, now shadows
devastation so abounds
our oasis, our Earth, gone

Well, the dinosaurs' extinction is attributed to the type of cataclysm you describe, James. Hopi Indian predictions are along the same line of thought. Very intriguing and well done, James. Love, Carolyn

James, Are you going Nostradamus on me here? ha ha. The concept of our sun, our oasis, shadowing devastation is unique and clever. Great take on words. Thanks for sharing this gifted write. Gwendolen
