Guilty Over Mollusks

Through sheer impulse, I was entranced 
By the beauty of rare mollusks in varied designs
Ready to be plucked , the evening my witness
When I gathered all that I had found.

A bothered conscience nailed on and on,
How could I have hurt nature which I adore?
As reparation for this lapse, I sent  hikers daily
this card, " I'm sorry for picking what's not mine."
