What’s Blowing in the Wind

Changing climate
turning season
weather choosing
a depletion.

Air in motion
portends turmoil
on an ocean
water gargoyle.

In these days of
earth’s erosions
victims flail in
wet emotions.

Will you, won’t you
fasten collar?
Won’t you, will you
fix the squalor?

NOTE: Donating to the victims of hurricane and earthquake disasters feels like blowing on a dandelion to casting one small seed into an unknown sea of pain, and hoping it will land and give a tiny bit of hope.
