it was almost morning,
half moon and venus were
still hanging at the star bar
watching the world turn.
“earth, ain’t she a beauty?!”
half moon commented.
“she really is, considering
her age,” venus had to agree.
“she’s weathered many storms
in her years…whatcha think
about this global warming?”
“i’m not convinced, seems
earth’s weather has always
been a bit unpredictable…

(sigh) i’m not sure people
are as wise and powerful
as they imagine they are.”
half moon chuckles, “well,
looks like sun’s gonna close
this place down…alright
if i walk you home?”

I tend to agree with your perception on this one! The answer is in the moon and stars! Only time will tell!

This was whimsical and clever Lynn. The vehicle of light conversation can be effective in presenting a point of view regarding something as heavy as climate change. For example: “not sure people are as wise and powerful as they imagine they are.” I would continue: ”especially those ignoring the science.”

I love the conversational form of this piece. Venus may have a cosmic view of things, but too many nay-sayers on global warming are putting heads in the sand.
