Gary Smith Poet Personification

Up To Your Knees

I think I'm fantastic, indestructable plastic

I dwell on the land and the sea,

Try as you will, any landfill

There's no way to get rid of me.

We are in our millions, heading towards billions

We'll soon be up to your knees,

Yet you pay no heed, the earth she may plead,

But still, you do as you please.

Gershon Wolf June 20, 2019 at 1:22 PM A classy plea for recycling and saving the earth/sea. Not the usual harangue. It's a FAVE for me, Gary. Best wishes, Gershon Gary Smith June 20, 2019 at 2:21 PM Thanks Gershon.
