What on Earth is going on?
The summers sure are getting warm
The winters have ten feet of snow
The snowflakes don't know where to go
Flowers bloom in the wrong season
Surely, there must be a reason
Father wind is blowing like grazy
Or else he's getting just plain lazy
Deserts are getting too much rain
Ya' think we all might be to blame?
What on Earth is going on
The oceans roaring all day long
Seas are groaning 'till late at night
Earthquakes happening left and right
A thousand plagues, a hundred wars
Floods and mudslides, the globes too warm
Tsunamis, hail, polluted rain
Tornados, twisters, hurricanes,
The polar ice caps are all melting
All the summers are so sweltering
I think about it, I don't know
And ....Hey...where'd everybody go?

Scary.
A well worded piece on a topical aspect of our weather. It would nice to think we are reading too much in to all that weather.
Thank you for entering. -
Stunning writing here. I love the flow, and the rhyme. Indeed, 'What on earth is going on'? Brilliant piece of writing. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

A grazy wind? Are ye expecting duststorms? Seriously, have a nice day. This is a funny poem - makes me laugh, and that's probably the best medicine for today.
