Two Degrees Celsius

So an end is near

Not the one we all so fear

But a long slow slide
                  
With ever rising high tide

So time is of the essence

Thanks again Pete. I had no idea what a Tanka was until I attempted this one for a contest. I thought it was a Buddhist wall hanging. I think that's a Thanka.

It's our children's children who are going to have a very scary life. This is so true. Can't believe I am first to see and comment!!

Thanks for the read and comment Andrea. I fear so deeply for my son and daughter. I feel so powerless. I do not have any idea how to advise them on preparation for what I fear they may face.
