The truth stood downcast in the lie, Antarctica ice is melting; Faster than scientists told us, Point of no return upon us. Warm air and less frigid water, The truth stood downcast in the lie; We were told not for centuries, Ice cliffs hundreds of feet- falling. All caused by greenhouse emissions, Ice melting- loss of habitat; The truth stood downcast in the lie, Polar bears, seals, penguins need ice. This picture painted is so dire, Severe storms, flooding and heat waves; Destruction of Earth is real, The truth stood downcast in the lie. __________________________ July 28, 2016 Poetry/Quatern/Point Of No Return Copyright Protection, ID 16-812-306-0 All Rights Reserved.

The second poem I've read this morning which is so true. The earth could handle mankind until a couple hundred years ago, and then with industrialisation and technological advancements we are annihilating the planet. However she will bite back...
