Orchestration For Planet Change

The Instrumentalists

Percussion: Tectonic plate movement, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions
Strings:        Solar wind and flares, meteor hits, and galaxy intrusion
Reeds:         Polarity arrangement, methane control under the oceans
Brass:          Layered by temperature: air’n water in motion

                                         The Ensemble      

                      Instruments tuned for planet change
                      Compose symphonies in ethereal range:
                      Mystic music for geologic meaning -
                      Melody for cosmic listening.

                      Ages ordered in time pleasing Trinity -
                      On earth in the universe out to eternity.
                      Ice ages in millenniums, cycled through millions:
                      Our years but moments: compare the planet in billions.

                      Human lifespan is varied, in century duration,
                      So we might know our limitations.
                      Natural science is not political science:
                      Human hope is in God reliance.
