A Poem

A poem by LoriAnn, for lack of a better thing to post. :) Enjoy!

The Sky is Falling

The sky is falling!

We run in circles, crying madly

The sky is falling!

What shall we do?

“Trade and cap—

Don’t be a sap

Do what’s best

Don’t run the tap!”

~Don’t run your mouth, you mean

The sky is falling!

We meet in hushed conclaves

The sky is falling!

What deals can we cut?

“Don’t run the heat

The North Pole’s beat

We’re melting…

Please, take a seat.”

~Yes, because you won’t hear the facts

The sky is falling!

We wail, and moan, and empty our wallets

The sky is falling!

What will they think up next?

“People? Too many!

Solution? Don’t have any!

Children, that is…

Thy cost a pretty penny.”

~No, children are a gift from God

The sky is falling!

We shake our heads in bewilderment

The sky is falling!

Whatever shall we do?

“Be wise, take care

And do your share

To steward God’s world

It’s only fair…”

After all, He cares for us

But don’t freak out about it,

OK?
