Fear Not Faced
Climate change cannot be reversed unless we face it head-on. Ignoring it offers little hope for the future. How can we expect that to change if we continue to bury our heads in the sand?
fair weather
nothing but a dream
fears not faced
This haibun (of sorts) is my second response to Quadrille #140: Let’s Go to the Fair!, the prompt from Linda Lee Lyberg at dVerse ~ Poets Pub, which is to use a form of the word fair in a 44-word poem (excluding title), with no required meter or rhyme.

Earthlings need to take their faces out of the sand and look around. The climate is changing and more disasters will occur. Flooding, fires and whatever else comes our way.
Well said, within the ripples of poetry.

I think we all need to change… the focus on our leaders is sometimes hoping too much….
