Value at Risk

Today the world innately understands
The passage of free water round our lands;
Each current flows and passes by our laws
So people in each place submit to flaws.
The essence of real truth then passes by
Quite unrelated to the stars and sky.
Uncorrelated to our sense of right
The sun shines on through every day and night.
Religious ethics are not shown in trees
Where Nature's compounds can prevent disease,
Our planet needs this sense of where we stand,
It needs the value of resource in hand.
So this is where that talent of our youth
Makes all we die and live for future proof.
