Premium Member how did you get here
How did you get here, little one? You are such a contrast to these dead leaves and sticks They are gray, tan, and ugly You are a misfit in the world of the unseen. You usually fit onto a rearview mirror of a car. I cannot see anyone wearing you as an eyepatch I doubt you fell off someone’s backpack. Wait a...

Earth is Dying
Eternity lies within me, Sharing a gift i see, Another dance with reality. How many will there be, In each I've planted a seed Before learning what they need. To move further and lead, A life I Am proud to leave, Behind to move ahead. Traveling galaxies in my head, Leading me right back here, This beautiful blue sphere, And all the Life within her. Witnessing the damage...

No litter please!
Please don’t leave your litter here, There’s a river running near, It harms the birds, It harms the bees, Before floating to the seas, Where it harms the manatees, Dolphins, whales, fish, and seals, Swallow plastic with their meals, They cannot clean up our pollution, Please be part of the solution, There’s a river running near, Please don’t leave your litter here. ...

Premium Member From the Litter Bin
Under three, and under seven Under the ace of spades Lies a land I’d like to land on But I live in Hades To get out the easy way Take the shady train And I ride it day to day Knowing its in vain I can make a change to go Boatman gets his fee But its not the shore I know Where he’s taking me I...

Premium Member Sea Glass
Sea Glass From Mother Nature’s Jewel Box She gives us… Hummingbirds with wings aflutter, a symphony for cherry blossoms Sunset, moonrise primordial orbs, magic looms Shooting comets that grace every sky Twinkling stars that wink on ebon nights then wane and vanish in sunlight She reciprocates … Over the sands of time She forms and fashions troves of jewels Refuse, shards of glass litter...

The Cat's Litter
James and Peter Found a messed up cat litter Close by at Peter's A cat is amiss The litter smells of cat's piss The missus remiss The miss is too slow To clean the cat's messy show The cat meows in woe The cat runs away A missus tries to find it Away the cat goes This goes to now show That the house is a dumpster And smells...

Premium Member I need a Litter Box
Jimmy wished he was a cat Not a kitten, but a full-grown caterwauling tom He prayed about it every night for ten years One morning he saw catlike qualities in the mirror I look like a cat! He said. I have whiskers like a cat! I need a litter box. So he made himself one out of a long dishpan His mother kicked...

Litter On My Mind
Litter on my mind When I walk into the garden of my mind I sometimes pick up weeds that must be rid of in the cold light of sanity. A person, from the past, sent me a rancid email claimed I had been lying when telling him I had crossed the Sahara barefoot when it was a...

Premium Member Litter
Litter here, litter there Piles of litter everywhere. Bins half empty or piled high Too much packaging in supply. Plastic, paper, metal cans Liquid spillage in sea and lands. Waters full of micro beads Man-made plastic, choking seeds. Wasted food turns to stench and rot Flies and rats love those spots. Wrappers, *** butts, strewn about Selfish litter louts without a doubt. Dumping...

Premium Member We Reason, Therefore 'Litter Be'
We Reason, Therefore “Litter Be!” (1) “Litter be, litter be, litter be, litter be!” (2) Hear our future’s judgment, “Litter be! Oh, Oh, Oh!” Yes, dinosaurs still roam the earth (more you than me?) We find their footprints (left in mud) recast in stone, their poop now fossilized, eggs future toast last day! But that’s not “litter” I regard. Such scars...

Premium Member Hoarders
People say oldies are hoarders They collect miscellaneous Throughout the years Knowledge,experience and utensils The whole family contributes to the collections They are memorable They are precious Electrical appliances,dresses and shoes Souvenirs,books and certificates Piled up the space They seem to be very rich With a small gallery We also fall into this category But recently we send away all the litters To the recycling...

Premium Member Litter Pickers
Litter Pickers There's litter pickers with a mighty touch Rising early to do the task they love They do it for free, that is how they are No asking for payment, each one's a star. Pickers are out whatever the weather Getting through a mountain of shoe leather Always with a beaming smile on their face They have souls led by beatific grace. They...
