GLOBAL WARMING

Because of global warming
The ice caps are melting
Much faster and it's falling
By the chunks causing 
Sea levels to rise tremendously
And creating devastating flooding
Because the water has to settle
Somewhere, it's starting to remind me
Of the movie WATERWORLD and
How those people had to live/

Global Warming 2100

The mountains wept.
The skies moaned.
The soil trembled.
The trees whispered their last green prayers—
"Man has destroyed us... alone."

He who adds no value
takes all,
then leaves nothing—
just wastelands where rivers once sang.

The year was 2100.
Half of Britain—gone beneath the Atlantic.
Japan—smaller than a dot on a map.
American states—flooded into memory.
Europe—erased.
Russia’s frost—melted into pestilence.

Africa— Famine became the air.
Children born on

GLOBAL WARMING

I remember those summers as a boy,
When the sun shone down from morning till night.
That sun on our backs brought us so much joy 
And we laughed at those who’s skin was still white.
We knew nothing back then of UV rays,
As we lay on the beach by the ocean.
Sometimes we burnt on the hottest of

Torrid Affair

If, as the saying goes,
'There's no smoke without fire,'
is it smarter to ignite a spark
(illumination causation)
than bedamn the dark,
and thereby induce a funeral pyre,
or, better yet, a safer bet,
to avoid gossip and accusations,
find the substantiated fact(s)
(true datum)
before you act
and land in sorry situations?
It's no joke, on soot you'll choke,
yet, on the greener side,
carry the torch for earth

“What is the use of a house if you haven`t got a tolerable planet to putt it on.”
Henry David Thoreau

Global Warming

what have we done
for glaciers to melt so fast
for forest fires to flare so often
for tornadoes to rage so strongly
for droughts to occur oft and anon
for flash floods to recur time and again

GLOBAL WARMING

Summer is here the sun shine dim,
The rays no longer burn 
The world became cold.
Flowers stopped growing 
Rejected by the sun,
Slowly dieing the world is no longer fun.
It's the last hour struggling to survive, 
Distant by souls time for goodbye.
The past is frozen soon to be forgotten, 
Like ripe fruit slowly becoming rotten. 
The ocean

Victorian Gift

Thank us for the gift we give
The steam train running the rails
All it cost is a piece of coal, and the smoke we give to the air
Thank us for the gift we give
The steam ship ruling the waves of blue
All it cost is a piece of coal, and the smoke we give to the

Premium MemberNew Eyes

How did I not see this before?
The green of the trees
 with their cornucopia of shades
Layered and punctuated periodically
 with a unique dapple of light
Amid the litany of man's failing 
 concrete towers
The leafy giants stride imperceptibly 
 towards notoriety 
Saving the planet
 one gramme at a time
As the humans race past.
The leisurely somnambulants
 biding,

Premium MemberThe Global Warming Experts


The so-called experts have been saying lately
There's a slow down in global warming
It's true, it hasn't been very tropical lately
Global warming is under performing

Do you think it's possible it just could be
A normal fluctuation in the world's temps
But who am I to offer this assessment
Why they're fluctuating to this extent

Could it possibly be the experts

Dearest Gretta,
 The world stands amazed at your powerful voice
at such an early age..
The call to action, the dire global truth, so eloquently
shared by one in her youth..
During you're sabbatical, the powerful petition
you made to world leaders to confront carbon emissions..
Holding them accountable for their promises of change.
You also met with scientists to discuss an

Souls are Worth What You'd Sell for

My first enemy was one I should have loved
He claimed that he loved me but I suppose not enough
He carved the gaps in all my memories
And deprived me of what made me
A child at twelve and adult at thirteen
I was fourteen when I first wrote to law
And my tear-stained pages yielded the Nakita Clause
Marked by
