April

The weather is becoming warmer,

flowers are blooming all around us,

the birds are waking us up with their chirps,

and the ducks are looking for snacks from us

when we take walks in the park.

Everything seems so perfect

on the surface

but how can we be happy about the April weather

When the world is overheating?

How can we keep equanimity?

We are watching helplessly

as the world around us burns

animals are dying

and the earth is dying

Why won't anybody help us?

Why are they watching their creations die?
