An Eco poem....
What is Lost
i walk along the
path follow the trail and grieve
what is lost what
will be lost what is not to return
what is dumped into
rivers waste everywhere what is thrown away
what is kept how
to live simply how to conserve
how to step
lightly without destroying what is loved
what is needed what
is still here spring is here again
the birds that
vanished are returning will there still be a here
for them are all
the trees cut down is the air foul
will they find
something to eat will they sing again this year

Yay, happy to read your beautiful eco poem....that is the question....will there still be a here? Love this, Annell.
If I didn't have the birds to hear singing it would be a sad day indeed.
Beautifully poignant..!!
I feel your passion here, Annell. I'm so glad you were inspired by the eco poems. And I love your vanishing birds here. My heart aches for us to care for this incredible place we've been gifted.
Very appropriate poetry...i always hope the birds come back!
Annell, this would fit the prompt at Midweek Motif on climate change, I believe........a sad and beautiful poem.
