Perhaps

Perhaps... Life in peril The arctic sun never sets Ice thickness recedes Global warming squeezes Grandma's smile Her friend, the Polar Bear, dies Her cup of tea....cold Hold the rocks you believe Never let go their grasp In time, no one remembers no one remembers

Yes the polar bear is in trouble. Imagination carries this to a great high. I so enjoyed.

There's a saying about letting go of the grasping and jumping into the river, keeping your head up, going with the flow, and celebrating who's in there withya. Is one of my faves, you familiar? Thanks for the write, JMG, beauty day to ya~N
