Erosion Everywhere
Erosion is everywhere
whether it’s in ones life
or part of nature’s moods
the eating away of land
the sea on coastal belts
falling of timber trees
eating away protection
of dangerous gases
floating around the air
polluting the world
Maybe a spider web broken
that’s erosion of its home
How many more homes
to disappear from one’s life
So much misery for humans
manners have changed
no please or thank you’s
These days human bodies
are slowing showing the
effects of a life of erosion.
Destruction is everywhere
leaders of the country
forever changing rules
life hanging on a thread.
Too many guns around
schools work under stress
every day children suffer
erosion of their little lives
not knowing what to do
the laws need repairing.
