- Seabird and Plastic -

Seabirds suffering -
                                      consequences of plastic
                                          a place in the sun
                                         with scary scenario
                                      - big wave is taking over

                                           Building a temple
                                     a home for the little ones
                                         in front of our eyes
                                      overwhelming evidence
                                      - it's a terribly sad sight

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 10/9/2019 1:40:00 PM Your pic. says it all my dear Sunshine Smile and your poem reinforces the factual reality of what is happening to our oceans. Rivers (and some famous ones), are so polluted, how can we let this happen to the oceans on our planet - an absolute disgrace. This poem is a definite fav. for me. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
