GLOBAL COOLING

 

I wrote a poem about global warming, which few probably read, that suggested that the Earth itself might alter our concerns about global warming to global cooling caused by volcanic activity. Seems like although I really didn't appreciated the science, the possibility is real.......

My poem....

Global Warming?

It was warm, and then it wasn’t.

It snowed, and then it didn’t.

The snow went away, came back, 

then went away, …..again.  Global Warming 

some were heard to say, but who’s to know 

as records only show a century ,or so, and records 

don’t reveal times when things, long past, 

went horribly wrong, when volcanos 

with no warning erupted 

spewing ash high up in the sky, 

causing change that continues to our time. Perhaps, 

so called global warming, will once again 

be interrupted by a blast of ash from volcanos 

now dormant, but primed to once again 

alter time. Still, even if the planet continues 

to issue warnings about global warming, 

there exists the chance that without warning, 

global warming will itself, change the weather back, 

and snow and cold will cause some to say, 

Global Cooling the reason for today.
