Description:


Something that I hurriedly wrote for our EVS project, accompanied with suitable pictures.



Just Where Are We Headed?



"Is the world coming to an end?",
I have come to be frank and ask.
For, every corner I turn to, a hand to lend,
There lies a tall unfinished task.

"We're well started!", I must comment...
..."Public awareness through mass media"
And crores, on towers, malls, cars have now been spent.
Why spend more on pools ( floods )? The idea!

I looked to the sky and saw a black shadow.
Just a plane. I looked on ahead.
A terrible blast! 'Twas just a photo.
Or a few would have to work to bury a few more dead.

"Could I escape to a place less explosive and scary?",
Said I, "No bombs and murders cold blooded."
'Twas then that I found a wild life sanctuary.
Alas! Even that place was flooded!

Nothing will change even when "Earth's Reserves" will go bankrupt.
They aren't used well anyway, you see.
So, if the people are unhappy and their leaders are corrupt,
things better get started - with me!

And I hope that others will follow
In cleaning up the mess.
It's wise to gain this after going the hard way
And after studying E.V.S.!

  Hello Megan,
You are so young and wise about the world and the state it is in.

I wish the world leaders would step up to the plate and follow the wisdom of Al Gore.
Because the path we are on now mother nature is not well in many ways.

Anywho enough of my babble.

Great write with a lot of meaning.
Take care kiddo thank you for the read!

  Excellent work, and a fine philosophical write! I particularly like that you exemplify that improvement starts with the individual! If every human alive (or even 1/2 of us, for that matter) were to perform one environmentally friendly act each day, huge strides could be made.

Nice work, pretty lady!
