Pollution a Curse on Earth's Surface

and Climate Change Barnstar  (here)

basic restrains on earth's surface:
earth (was cold and dry) 
water (was cold and wet)

with bloodshot eyes red with anger
at plastics and debris in dead tummies
of one-time innocence of ocean life

also of noxious fumes unseen and unfelt
but billowing waving in the breeze
still awareness is given a pushover
considering climate change is happening
progressing in the background
and not an option anymore

mankind is forgetting the danger
the trapping of the sun's warmth
of the green-house effect 
always in conversation
still a threat
but never seemed to be happening

it is slowly creeping in though
pollution 
a curse on earth's surface

  2. Mankind pays attention to very little. Including poet's words. Sobering and ponderous write.

  3. True words. It is so sad that we have to await disaster before we even begin to do anything meaningful about it.
