Pollution lies so heavy on the earth
The clouds of excess hang low and dark
Block out the stars that shine above
Creating an imbalance
Street lights can’t compensate
Our children are sick
Allergic
Toxic
In
Need
Of love
Clean water
Breathable air
Food that’s not tainted
Animals to learn from
Clear skies to stargaze at night
Tall healthy trees to climb and play
Quiet streets to hear ancestor’s speak
Feeling ancient wisdom within their hearts

beautiful poem and interesting format.
the pollution has now gone to areas of the world where there had been a previous balance with nature. all at the cost for the ‘advancement of civilization”. it will cease one way or another, the easy way or the hard way. unsustainable growth is, well, unsustainable, like cancer cells in the body.
