Well I think it's fine building jumbo planes
or taking a ride on a cosmic train
switch on summer from a slot machine
get what you want if you want - 'cause you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
we're changing day to day
but tell me where do the children play?
-Cat Stevens
these are a few of the things we saw as we walked the beaches yesterday
we live on an island after all
winds blow and seas storm
all things return to the sea
so water bottles and what not that are blown from recycling bins
travel through streets and neighborhoods
into waterways - into rivers
into the seas
back up onto beaches
where the tides carry them back out
until they are broken down into tiny microscopic
pieces and are consumed by marine life
who then either die themselves
or are consumed
by guess who?
So shall we sow, so shall we reap,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I think its time we humans take care now
ReplyDeleteGreat post, it is a shame to walk down a beach and see trash. If only more people would care more for their environment and put trash where it belongs. Great post, enjoy your new week!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! You've hit on a pet peeve of mine! Ocean {or any kind} of pollution. I, too, love the seashore and my heart hurts when I see what we're doing to our beaches and tidal areas. What will our children and grandchildren do? What are we leaving them? And great photos!
ReplyDeleteSo sad to think we are such poor caretakers of our world.
