A Major World Problem

Human beings a fault of earth's malnourished We have good reason to be afraid for it All gone where life once woven and had flourished Future might find our Earth lifeless and famished Nuclear war can destroy if given permit Human beings a fault of earth's malnourished Changes in climate practically finished Inclement weather has become more frequent All gone where life once woven and had flourished The rich ever richer, wealth being lavished No one seems to care of the homeless a bit Human beings a fault of earth's malnourished But human-race and nature who gets punished For their recklessness , but they will not admit All gone where life once woven and had flourished Global Warming earth and wars will had Vanished We can fight for the health, the cause and knit Human beings a fault of earth's malnourished All gone where life once woven and had flourished 4/18/2021 A Major World Problem Poetry Contest Sponsored by: L MILTON HANKINS

Eve, congratulations on your win! You have nourished our awareness of how each individual choice becomes an avalanche of destruction or a tide for positive change. Sending you blessings and a hug.

Congratulations, Eve. Well-penned. There are still a few rich people who are really out there to help the poor; however most of them use their established non-profit organization to their own good. They pocket the donations to get richer...

Eve - a fine poem and certainly deserving of high placement among the submissions. I wish you had focused on one major problem which probably cost you better placement. Overall, it was an excellent poem and well-received. Thanks so much for submitting!

There are so many millionaires in this world. They do not know the meaning of charity.
