Poetic Interlude XIV

WE MUST REACH OUT

When the thunder sounds

And the sky is ripped apart

The great sea roars

And the land disappears

When the volcanoes erupt and the lava spills

The storm rages and ravages the hills

The earthquakes return and the snow enfolds

All is uproar, darkness and dangers untold

We are here – yes you and I

Travelling on land sea or sky

Homo sapiens full of big ideas and plans

Facing nature and all it’s demands

We sink and don’t swim in Tsunami’s embrace

In this

We must reach out
