Sounds

Sounds

She tells us
In different ways 
That we are failing 

The roar of thunder 
Pounding rain 
Floods ripping through homes 
Cars once driven, now… sailing.

Scorched earth 
Dancing Fires 
Racing through thirsty lands

Dulled skies
Thick, heavy pollution 
Suffocating busy streets
Blankets of smog…expands

Ice caps 
Melting into salty seas
Creaking, breaking, swallowed

She showed us
Devastation, death, despair 
Disrespect of the once hallowed

Will we listen?
Will we notice?
The sounds of Mother Earth? 

Will it be too late?
Will we care?
Close our eyes to her beauty & worth?
