The Periodic Tables

The Periodic Table of the elements

have so much going for them

but few see

the elements related to our environments

they fail to see the similarity

Calcium and Strontium are Sisters

Potassium and Caesium are too

Iron and what is hell on earth Plutonium

but this is what the scientists could do

use the brains they have

and walk the avenue

a spot of logic and a slice of care

in a world where bottom lines run riot

science might pretend its everywhere

for where we grow our food the soil is dying

minerals usurped some years before

the supermarket moguls want big margins

and growers pay in blood for keeping score

twas NPK and Leibig on his deathbed

he uttered his last words

and gave free reign

to Tom’s To Dick’s to Harry’s

yes to all of them who in so many words

had much to gain

but a tragedy exists for all and sundry

the agony is long without an end

Cancer is advancing now unchallenged

in the etheric world I now suspend

insidiously, the sisters are advancing

quietly they irradiate each soul

Colloidal and chelation have their place now

a resting place that could produce a goal
