Vast Huge World

Young boy, fritter not your days inside For, myriad outdoor splendors wait, A vast, huge world you’ve left untried, Now go! Discover flowers ornate, For, myriad outdoor splendors wait Where glowing screens won’t mystify. Now, go discover flowers ornate, Find flora and fauna to satisfy Where glowing screens won’t mystify. Dare climb a tree, have both your eyes Find flora and fauna to satisfy And marvel at earth, its scope and size; Dare climb a tree, have both your eyes Venture, at last, into countryside And marvel at earth, its scope and size; Unplug those games, cast phone aside, Venture at last into countryside, A vast, huge world you’ve left untried. Unplug those games, cast phone aside: Young boy, fritter not your days inside! October 2. 2017 Write Me A Pantoum Poetry Contest Kim Rodrigues, Sponsor
