The Web Poetry Corner - Tanya Ruth Larson - Nature's Unpredictable Nature

Nature's Unpredictable Nature

by

Tanya Ruth Larson

Ashen clouds tethered to suspended sky,
Pulpmill smokestacks' cumuli
Tumble up a burnt mountain,
As the forest fire climbs
On back of the fanning wind,
And all falls down
Into our valley-haze,
Tucked away
By the mother of all
Climate change,
Keeping us - her children -
Praying for white wonder.

Snowshed's arsenal,
In sudden haste,
Melts away
Into the deep
Wells of spring.
The river will take more
Than its fill from glacial taps,
As people back away
From the danger of being
People
In the fearsome face
Of unpredictable nature.
