Oceans Will Rise

That look in a child's eyes is fright: they're afraid of global warming. They fear the scientists were right: consequences of transforming. Climate change can devastate Man. Its effects are kept out of sight by trickery and sleight of hand. Old dogs of war, once trained to bite, don't even try to understand. Oceans will rise, despite their lies.

And I say that old serpent Satan wants our eyes on climate change and off the Lord. Yet we can see both, my friend. But first look up. Nothing can happen without the Lord allowing it. Who but God could empty city streets? Great photo and poem, my friend. Thanks for letting me speak my mind. Hugs...Kim
