An eerie light

An eerie light fell over the afternoon

A blanket of doom

Nature’s fires

Conspire to remind us

Humans are you noticing

Things are not as they were

And you are still sleeping

There is no longer blue sky

Peeping out

From cloud strewn skies

And signs of death are all around

How much longer can we keep

Running around

So busily

Turning a deaf ear

To the resounding signs of loss

As we forget

The being that holds us here

And longs for us

To return

Before our closed ears

Defeat the cries

Of Mother Nature
