when icebergs are gone
never again to be seen
three million years later
after jungles have come and gone
when oceans and seas
have rearranged Pangea
what creatures then
will swim and wander
this changing earth
some different life
what God is worth
when icebergs and glaciers
have disappeared
for a million years
what will divinity
think of this
another billion years
such cosmic bliss
