SPLITTING WOOD

Splitting wood or splitting atoms.
Discussions that don't take place in chatrooms.

Those who argue for its awesome power.
Seldom mention the melt down of their towers.

Lessons learned from splitting wood might be more valid.
When looking at the larger pallet.

If nature or man should take a hissy fit.
I know on which side of the fence I would sit.

I would make my bet on splitting wood.

Something to keep the wood stove going.
When the winter winds came blowing.

Biscuits in the ACORN oven.

Hot tea served with a little love.
And some guidance from above.

Maybe a fiddle playing.
I'm just saying.
