Climate change is here
It should fill you with fear
Catastrophe is about
Don’t ignore the screams and shouts
The planet is confused
And every one snoozed
The ticking earth
Cynicism and mirth
Diverse and unsolvable
The speed is uncontrollable
It’ s like a sickness
It’s now a big mess
Like a restless runaway
That pushes us at bay
The earth is changing
Priorities rearranging
Time for us to wake up
Time for a big shake up
Recycle your tins
Reduce the stuff in your bins
Reduce your carbon footprint
Walk more drive less( hint hint)
More windmills Less fossil fuels
If we don’t change now consider us fools.
(Isadora wrote this quite young, hatched down during Hurricane Sandy in Philadelphia, USA – Oct 2012. The picture is obv not Philadelphia, but it moodily shows the storm & I love this poem. Happy to post other climate poems, if you want to send on.
