The Three Events ( Part 2 of 3 )

Last seen in the forest
These sisters three
Sightings in the Nordic region
Ice masses in melting spree
 
Glaciers that roamed
Like reindeer herds
Their speed of demise
Had never been heard
 
Lowlands in countries
Lost to the mass
Populations shifting
Like herds on the grass
 
Climates changing
Overnight
The dangers out there
The worlds in blight
 
Floods encroaching
Power Stations
Blackouts throughout
Many nations
 
Events are happening
All the world over
These sisters three
In their evil of clover
 
The waters rise
As many animals drown
Diseased neighbourhoods
In our cities and towns
 
Carcases floating
Bloated, infested
The might of the right
Once again to be tested
 
For many generations
The world is in fight
Once again we unite
To turn black into white

First part was " Their Ritual in the Forest " < Part 1 >

Excellent Poem... E. A Poe, is one of my favorites and I love the rhythymic - drama of this piece... I remember reading about the three fates who would cut the thread of lives... This reminded me of them... Great Storytelling... MoonBee

Compelling tale of destruction due to glacial melting, James. I remember the first poem. Did the three sisters play a role in creating this cataclysm? You describe the event and its aftermath very well. And we're just about due for another shift of the Polar ice cap, so it's relevant as well. Great work, James! Love you, Carolyn
