Sounding a Unified Chord

Hottest month, the roads are dust Gardens are drying up from drought I’m talking about this 2022 August Sun beating down with a heavy clout Mercury thermometer’s about to bust! August is the hottest ever on record Global warming is undisputedly real The U.S.’d better join the Paris Accord Despite what conspiracists may feel The world must sound a unified chord Written August 6, 2022

Worrying Milton, it needs everyone to be on board, I've often said it, man will be the cause of his own destruction. Tom

I certainly agree with you, Tom. It must be a unified, universal effort with everyone doing their part.

Words to take to heart... The world is rumbling, and God is coming. Well done. Your words are powerful and true. Ann

Thank you so much, Ann. I'm afraid this is what's happening.
