Provocatively dark
Swirling in motions not likely
to find a solution
Turbulent skies
Pugilistic

Uncharitable, undeterred
Volatile in its make
Ready to unleash
the power within

Underlings on earth
Preparing a defense
Against an expected
stormy encounter

The Heavens falling!
Be it snow, rain, hailstones
Blizzards and sandstorms
The Heaven's warning!
Volcanic eruptions,earthquakes
and tsunami

Global warming!
Retribution demands
a correction to ills of human folly

Repent!

    a correction to the ills of human folly....sadly all too true....was just reading today on all the manatees in florida killed this year...and some by natures own doing...wonder when she will turn her attention to us...

    When she comes after us we are toast, she'll fry us up like a roast, much to our fault as we pollute earth's vault.

    I agree with Brian and Pat. People are asking for it. The prime minister of Canada doesn't believe in Global Warming. Where does that leave the Canadians who know it's true. We're at the mercy of the PM's office and Mother Nature at the same time.
    Sigh.
    Well done, Hank.

    I agree with the other comments...we have to be kind to mother Earth or live with the consequences. Well done.

    We do need to 'repent' before any more damage is done! A good reminder, Hank.

    Sadly we sow what we reap with nature's gifts ~ If only we repent sooner than later ~

    Well said, Hank. I wonder why some people don't believe in global warming.

    I think of Sang Kancil. We need him now to show humans their follies, Sir Hank!
