The Sea Level Is Rising

The Sea Level Is Rising By Elton Camp Back in the 1950s when I was a child That sea level would rise seemed wild Even those who thought that it might Centuries into the future set that fright It was only a concern for some distant day But the reality has already come our way The way polar ice melts at a faster rate The problem will worsen early, not late It is those who live very close to the coast That from the disaster will suffer the most Southern Florida may vanish into the sea And we aren’t sure how soon that may be Entire island nations are likely to disappear Massive relocations we now have to fear Those living inland in pleasure may grunt For their property may become waterfront
