Man v Nature – A New Poem

I can hear the white snow melting

Drip, drip, dripping from the gutters

*

The songbird returns to the sky

Chirp, chirp, chirping while wings flutter

*

Sunlight yawns awake, grinning wide

Burn, burn, burning away the frost

*

Industry returns to glory

Whir, whir, whirring but at what cost?

*
