Sense Sonnet - Acher

The Telling Tree

Alaska yellow cedar tree -
The canary in the coal mine?
Dying en masse these trees do be.
Is this a changing climate sign?
These trees have lived through all gone past,
Through life cycles of come and go.
Is this time meant a warning cast
Of fate to come that all will know!
The world is warming up this time.
Fossil fuel burning gets the blame,
As temperatures further do climb.
Most likely life won't stay the same.

This yellow cedar tree today.
What life dies out next - who can say?
