The Shaky Planet Warms, A LIttle

Lots of shaking on planet Earth today
Magnitude 6.1 quake over Sumatra way
And, 5+ quakes have the 'Stans a rockin'
Fiji and Java, plates are still knockin'
And big shakes in Va. governor's house
College pic makes Ralph look a louse
Jump on fast, pile on quick
Once a racist, always a dick?
Better question, has he changed?
We all have pasts, have your ideas rearranged
If they haven't, that's a concern
The hope is we all grow and learn
I bet most shouting for him to resign
Have things in their past that aren't so fine
So, careful making threats, slinging mud
Might slip off your high horse, big ole thud
Must be nice being perfect, I sure don't know
Still trying to learn for my past and grow
I hope everyone is...

Did you catch the pre-dawn crescent moon?
A thin, thin wisp hidden by sunlight soon
And, I saw Venus and Jupiter, too
But, Saturn, today, alluded my view
Now the hazy sun slowly warms the air
Still way too cold to wake hibernating bear
But, the warming trend will expand
Maybe get a golf club in my hand
This Tuesday
Good day to play
First a cold week, then one quite warm
Add them together, divide and get the norm
Norm shows a world warming, steadily, too
Direct result of what you and I do
Burning fossil fuels, we're all to blame
That we won't change, that's the shame
Get out today, go for a wander
How can you help, give it a ponder
Ain't nothing but change a comin'
Icebergs calving, hear Earth a drummin'
And, don't be afraid to pass out some smiles
One smile can spread joy, for miles and miles
Today On Earth:)
