Partners, friends, and children,
Got sidelined by the Vietnam War.
Everyone’s future undecided
Many outcomes were looking poor.
Some people joined the Army.
Others bought guns to guard their home.
Their family friends and lovers,
Felt abandoned, scared and alone.
As the world issues lessened,
The public felt safe again once more.
Yet the planet had been compromised,
Declaring an environmental war.
The Atmospheric River rains
Wreak havoc far beyond the norms...
Ocean currents, wind and fires rage,
Redefining seasonal storms.
“Timid soldiers” joined the Coast Guard,
Thought the public who never knew…
How many friends and lovers,
Risk their lives to rescue you.
