Unfortunately when greed clouds ones vision then the beauty of nature takes a back seat. Sadly for most, what one 'cannot see' one doesn't worry about. A great Epigram of thought dearest Demetrios. A fave....Maria xxx

Hi Demitrios, I totally agree. Man need to improve how they treat this planet before he can possibly think about a " new" planet. I enjoyed the read:-) Alexis

If only Man could understand this paramount truth we would certainly have a healthier attitude towards our planet dearest, Alexis. Thank you so much my friend. XXX

"Disease" - both a simile and a metaphor and a truth!!!! I like this one so much.

...no, my friend, Tom, I deal only with bigger things than bottles! Just planets! Haha. I see we agree that Man doesn't learn. He destroys something and when is done with it he moves on to destroy something else! Thank you!
