Split Second Warning

Seismologists have revealed recently

Pulses from earthquakes can be detected early

Like ripples they move across the terrain

It’s possible then to send split second warning

There is little good that will come from this people think

Sending warning to people in the space of a blink

Except those who know will appreciate its value

Calls coming with moments to spare and lots to do

Operating surgeons with a scalpel on your heart

Now learning this isn’t the time to start

Delivery obstetrician who may have otherwise rush

When hearing the alarm tell their patient don’t push

And what about the laser in your eye

Really dangerous so the ophthalmologist wouldn’t try

Notice they’re doctors but other professional too

In that moment can prevent the harm they might do  

Now from technology, proper preparation , nighttime or morning

Gladly there is much possibility with Split Second Warning
