Search the caverns of your mind
Probe their deepest depths to find
The reason why it all began
To rise on earth this creature Man
Climbing high from lowly means
To near the summit of his dreams
To grow more clever year on year
Advancing to each new frontier
But now the time has surely come
To act for all and not just some
To slow his filthy air emissions
To cut his technological ambitions
Reduce his fouling of the air
A message for the World to share
The time has come to check his rise
Before mankind and nature dies

This needs to be said time and again before we truly see actions making a cure.
Lets not forget the other pollutions which are corrupting our planet. For example the huge island of plastic mid atlantic and the harm plastics do to our undersea wildlife.
Thanks for your comment - I share your concerns about other pollutions and especially the unrelenting use of plastics.

The sober truth. Thank you, writer.
Gareth - Sober truth indeed - Thanks for your comment.

Well crafted dear poet
The words so well played
They flew as gentle river but the thoughts they make are strong and clear
I hope man realises and owns his mistake before it’s too late
Thanks for your comment - Yes, let's hope that we can put things right before it' too late!
Very true Classicmister, those in power only talk about making things better and those who can do something about it do not want to leave their ivory towers.

Andy - Of course their towers would have to have been made of ivory! Let's have less talk and more action!
Go well
