Blue and White Marshmallow Clouds by Rozana Huq |
Blue and white
marshmallow clouds
float peacefully,
in the sky.
听
They look pure,
soft as cotton.
An aura of
innocence and peace
reigns the sky.
听
Suddenly,
a noisy jet plane
shoots across
piercing
their innocent hearts,
leaving a trail
of broken
blue and white
marshmallow bits.
听
Their hearts bleed,
dripping droplets of tears
as they cry out.
But, nobody hears.
听
Our carbon emission
fills their lungs
and our ugly carbon foot prints
leave unwelcoming marks
on their door steps.
