Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Earth Day, which is celebrated today, April 22nd.
Today’s poem is a poem for Earth Day about the need for
political activity to save the Earth.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Each must save the Earth in multiple ways.
A vote can cut more carbon than a bulb.
Rules, like acid rain, can span the globe,
Taking aim at those whom blight won't faze.
Hard as many try, it will not do.
Development devours their mite and more.
An equal sacrifice requires a law.
Yet laws are passed by those obliged to you.
