Global Warming

Swiss Alps/2008/LPC

Global Warming
There was ice here

Huge sheets of it

Clinging to the earth

Carving the soil

Pushing in retreat

Leaving contours

Creating conditions

For new life

Including mine

I have clung to the earth

Pushed it 

Left contours

Created new life

They will say 

I was here

My offspring

They will do the same

Then be gone

The ice will return

Take comfort in that
