FROM A DISTANCE

Image may contain: one or more people, sky, ocean and outdoor
From a distance,
The earth has found rare peace.
The streets are refreshingly calm during the day,
And noise pollution has gone AWOL.
From a distance,
The ozone layer has been spared.
Industrial air pollutants are on sick leave.
Oxygen is finally smiling.
From a distance,
Health sector staff are the only full time employees.
Others are happily relaxing at home with their families.
From a distance,
Goats,birds & other stray domestic animals have no bosses.
They have gained independence,
And are freely patroling the streets like kites.
From a distance,
Man appears to be very much at peace with nature.
But,..........
On the ground,
In the health centres,
And in government,
Man is on his knees.
He's out of ideas.
He has sunk low.
He's helpless!
Nature is reshuffling the earth,
And man is being taken through it's simple but complex reshuffling process.
Man is painfully going through it,
One,
Day,
At,
A,
Time.
Let's keep hope alive...
