When the Earth Shakes

When the Earth begins to shake

And the ropes start to break

When the world begins to change

What choice will I make?

When the globe goes asunder

And joyful people start to wonder

When my view is full of blunder

Will I, too, go down under?

But I remember flowers and buzzing bees

The warm sun and dancing trees

Falling snow and frozen creeks

The ocean and the breeze

I remember laughter

And excitement

And love

And delight

When the earth begins to shake

I will choose life
