Question

Jade reflections, time is short

The day too young for light to abort

Sparkling, down far to ten

Clouds burning, we were asleep

The kids are too young and they weep

Sweltering, to ten times seven

Water grey, an ocean everywhere

Chilling and falling from the point of care

Soaking, we draw all back to our den

Tell me this, for you have a clue

When the time comes, what you do

Face or flee our fear of heaven

_nunc inveni id_

Do you mean global warming?

No. I meant polar bears but global warming would be connected. Global warming might be the answer but somehow, I can't see global warming as "we." The word den made me think of animals. It's probably referring to something else but it'll drive me nuts if I don't try. To me it sounds like the polar bears are losing their home to global warming and are deciding whether to stay or leave.

No to all

...and for clarification, i usually end my riddles with a nii or in this case, nunc inveni id. It translates "now find it," meaning find the answer. Nothing to do with the riddle.

some good guesses, but i'm looking for a word.

One-word answers aren't really my style if I think I've got it

Darkened clouds bring blue-green rain

And shield the sun from sight

Then to the sea it flows again

From heaven, taking flight

But if you must have a single word, I'd say "rain"

I'm not quite sure what the "ten" and "ten times seven" clues refer to though, perhaps temperatures in the clouds compared to the Earth's surface?

no hits.

here's another verse to keep this going.

Jade reflections, time is short

The day too young for light to abort

Sparkling, down far to ten

Clouds burning, we were asleep

The kids are too young and they weep

Sweltering, to ten times seven

Water grey, an ocean everywhere

Chilling and falling from the point of care

Soaking, we draw all back to our den

Tell me this, for you have a clue

When the time comes, what you do

Face or flee our fear of heaven

Feel it close in, tilting near

And still comes a time to cheer

Even should the darkness deepen

death?

what im really thinking of is "when your at a beach and the sun goes down and it gets cold so you have to go, but you dont want to, and you look back one last time to see the beautiful colors of the sun sinking down into the water casting shades of pink, red, orange, yellow and purple everywhere and smileing.

but for some reason, i have a feeling that that's probably too long ;)
