Rumor Has It Ii

Rumor has it on heavens above Among the angels’ divine sphere That God after very much thought Decided in man’s life to interfere For He has observed Man’s mistakes Which lately too many came to be To endanger the whole of creation Act with which God can never agree So the Lord has most recently chosen The book of life before long to reprint Revising certain of its very old chapters While others out will leave, He has hint The concern of humans is now to know Which chapters the book will not contain, Which are going to be, somehow, revised And which intact will forever remain What was heard through the vine though, It was Man’s huge and unbearable vanity That made our almighty Lord and creator To eliminate the chapter on humanity The reason that our God in His infinitive wisdom Reached such unexpected for Mankind conclusion Is the fact that Man during his reign on earth Has hurt our planet with his insensitive intrusion It might still be time for Man overall to be saved If he started correcting his many mistakes soon Beginning by respecting life and the whole planet And stop behaving as a dim-witted buffoon. © Demetrios Trifiatis 09 June 2016 * Lately mankind is witnessing extreme natural phenomena around the world. I though, after revising it, to repost this poem of mine so to remind ourselves of the upcoming dangers. ** According to UN’s report “We are in an era where climate change isn’t some kind of future hypothetical,” said Chris Field, one of the two main authors of the report, and Rajendra Pachari chair of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) added: “Nobody on this planet is going to be untouched by climate change.” For that UN suggested measures to be taken immediately for to save the planet. Moreover, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ( PNAS), announced that " Researchers have found out that pollutants are strengthening storms ...plus endanger the health of people." ***It is up to us to act in order to protect our planet, ourselves and our children!

Yes, they are scary times, my friend, Richard and as time passes by they will get even scarier if we do nothing about it. I am afraid though that even we do something it is too little, too late! Only when we suffer a major natural catastrophe we might wake up from this apathy slumber! Thank you my friend for your visit and for caring!
