hello #dversepoets i have chosen this poem for open link night tonight because it has just been accepted to be shown at a local Creative Climate Exhabition that is being on because of the #cop26 meeting coming up soon. this poem waas written back in 2017 ans is one of the first i put on this blog.
A child’s booted feet
Jump the rainbow puddle
Diesel on waters top
Holiday on tropical beach,
Washed up waste at your feet,
Plastic from the oceans depths,
In Leaving the earth dressed,
man’s hand me downs,
Of smog and pollution.

The juxtaposition of a child playing in the mud puddle and the mud puddle we’ve made of the earth environmentally is brilliant, Rog. Gets your point across powerfully.
