What Inheritance ?

Like a granny dressed in a shawl With flannel gown washed thin as lace Were the clouds on this July morn_curtain call To the human race by expression on face Sad they were from seeing the human race As humans are raping the land, sea, and plundering Space, leaving exhaust all over the place For future generations who inherit the blundering Garbage mountains, oily seas, dead birds, filthy beach With just a little thought and care from people This sphere could be renewed and saved __a peach A peach of a place to leave preserved green ample

This is something that is being done in the name of progress, but is actually greed motivated, as you indicate, Sara. An ample reminder for thoes of us who are attuned to the truth. Thanks for your comments today, dear friend. Agape, Moses

God is watching. Man through greed has messed up His plan of good husbandry for His earth. The day to pay will be here one day; not sure when, but it's coming. Great job! Joseph

You said it, Sara! All we need to do is put a little more thought into our actions and we can reverse the destructive course. Awesome poem! Love, Carolyn
