World - Signs Of Armageddon Poem by Paul Warren

How many signs of impending doom
Do you need to spread across the world in gloom
Are there earthquakes and tsunamis in our time
When these warnings can be so sublime

Or is there a comet or asteroid coming our way
That will mean in the end it blow the earth away
Maybe it will be a nuclear war between opposing groups
Who want to show others their strength and how low they will stoop

Perhaps the sun will flare in a Solar Storm and we will burn with it at our end
Then there's another ice age to freeze all of the world with no heat to defend
Global Warming may dry up our water supply and cause crops and herds to be lost
Wildfires spread across the world where communities are lost at such a cost

The Ebola Virus has shown a disease can spread to a world-wide plague
So how will it end for the blue planet - are the warnings for us vague?
What of all these signs of Armageddon and what are they worth
If you think of it really we all face our own end with a life with limits in its girth.
