Notes About The Poem

Bounty

We don't need to be 
religious or fanatics
to condone
sins abominable 
against the environment

Needing to recognize 
we are the custodians
of a bountiful planet

With a respectful heart
and clear conscience 
we owe it to our children
and upcoming generations
to leave this world
a better place
