Seeing is believing

 

The gale force winds have died away

The night hours passing quietly

Although the weather forecast say

The lull is only temporary

 

They forecast further misery.

Not only winds but heavy snow.

Remains a probability

With temperatures below Zero.

 

I wonder what happened to

The dire warnings we received

of Global warming. Were they true?

Or were they simply misconceived.

 

By experts who misread the signs.

Two bitter winters in a row

Would seem to me to undermine

The claims they made not long ago.

 

I choose to believe what I see

And disregard the expert view.

What I observe empirically

Is much more likely to be true.

 

Than forecasts which the experts make

Because they’re based on theory.

And experts often make mistakes

The risk exists potentially.

 

Although the experts claim to know

A great deal more than what I do.

I see the heavy falls of snow.

Which makes me doubt their claims are true.
