S O I L S P O L L U T I O N ~ An Acrostic Sonnet

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

THE ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION CYCLE ~ WE ARE ALL RSPONSIBLE ! 

 

S OME PEOPLE  find the Pollution of Soils

O R LAND  so hard to understand for an

I NDIVIDUAL !  But Sea & Air are

L IKELY  AREAS ~ Liquid & Gas ~ But  

S OIL  is different ~ WE DON'T POLLUTE OUR GROUND !

 

P OLLUTION  of the Land ~ Sea & Air is

O NE CONTINUOUS CYCLE !  Chemicals

L EACH  off Farmland and into our Rivers

L ANDFILL SITES  pollute Rivers ~ emit Gases

U P IN THE AIR ~ Like METHANE one of 

T HE GREENHOUSE GASES ~ Cars give SO2

I T'S  THE CAUSE  of Acid Rain ~ acidifies

O UR SOIL  and destroys our Pine Forests ~ SO

N OBODY  can say  "I DON'T POLLUTE SOIL" 

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

We are all conscious that we do contribute to the POLLUTION

of Rivers and the Ocean with our effluent and the Air with our

gaseous emissions ~ BUT ~ think we protect our land !  What

I have tried to explain is that POLLUTION CYCLES from the Land

to the SEA & AIR an from the AIR (Acid Rain) onto the Land. So

the Fertilisers & Pesticides we encourage our Farmers to use

the exhaust gases from our cars etc ~ the "rubbish" we throw

out every week all contributes to ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION !

Consequently we are all responsible and it's going to get worse

unless we all have a change of MIND & HEART ~ Love BRIAN XOX 

 

This poem is presented as a Blank Verse Acrostic Sonnet ~ OK

      Yes we are all in the blame area of pollution these days Brian - doing just the small bit we can to protect this planet is always worthwhile. A fine acrostic sonnet which shares all the many needs facing people who care.

                      Thanks for bringing awareness to this issue. We all need to work as hard as we can to be greener. We've got to preserve what we have. I've been to New York City and was appalled by smog. I had never seen it before. (How do they see the stars?) I hope we can all do what we can to better the planet, and soon. Hugs-Christina
