My Feared Legacy
I look to all my progeny, especially the very young;
My grand and great-grandchildren, whose lives have new begun!
I fear so for their legacy, of my generation’s woes;
Global warming is destroying us, each year, its terror grows!
.
The icebergs are all melting, the ocean’s temperatures are on the rise;
Amazon Forests being mowed down, Mother Nature’s tears within her eyes!
Our Good Earth is quickly dying, getting assassinated by evil greed;
We have little time to save it, if scientific warnings we take heed!
.
But there are many men in power, who say it’s all a hoax;
They profit from its decimation, while natural resources are going broke!
We need to band together, and stop them in their tracks;
Strip them of their power, and cover Mother Nature’s back!
.
Only then, will all the fears alleviate, for my beloved progeny;
I will leave them with a future, an everlasting legacy!
So, I lobby now for all of those, who know what must be done;
To save our Earth from ending, and assure her eternal Sun!
.
.
My dear Progeny
I want your future sunny
On your Planet Earth

Hello Larry...
I watched a show last night about the pace the Glaciers are melting and they said the problems began in 1960...
I wasn't even born yet...
They're too far gone now, and now people want to do something...
As far as people in Power we haven't once agreed on that...
I remember as a teenager they were talking about the amount of trees being destroyed from the Rain Forests..
So called Natural Disasters are happening at a faster pace also, the Earthquakes are getting more severe...
I wrote one on February 7th, Titled PEOPLE WILL GET THE CREDIT...
Next people will blame it on cigarettes...
Cut down the trees, fill the air with Chemicals from airplanes it goes into the soil and water and we can fill our bodies with metal that goes to our brain...
That's not enough we eat food out of tin cans and drink from them too or plastic and fill the Ocean to turn them into dumping grounds...
Then they say after years and years the BPA isn't healthy so now we pay more so it we can get it BPA free...
If I were God and there's reincarnation I would take all these fools and turn them into rodents where there homes are in the gutters where they belong...
Great write!
Thank you for sharing...
What are you going to do to fix it?
Still voting Democrats and encourage the fornicators?
Hugs...

Dear Sparrowsong,
First, I will address your question of what I'm going to do to fix it. Linda and I recycle EVERYTHING, from newspapers, cartons, right down to the cardboard within toilet paper rolls. We try to encourage others to do the same. We make sure that our vehicle is well maintained, and spewing bad emissions into the air.
You are right, that the Earth's decimation has been going on for many decades. But, the scientists say that, if we cease our evil ways, it is still possible to save her.
By the way, this insane President, is the only one out of one hundred and thirty-one countries, who did not sign the Paris Accord. He thinks that global warming is a hoax.
So yes, I am still voting Democrat, for they are the "fornicators" who will screw Donald Trump.
Thank you for your most heartfelt comment.
Love,

Hey Dear Poet Brother LARRY!!
Excellent choice for subject matter to shine a light on!!.....The concern being that we are leaving too much for our children to be able to handle....... that feeling of failing the coming generations is permeating its way through EVERYTHING!!..... and as I look at everything that is going on right now there is ABSOLUTELY reason to believe that we WILL succeed at bringing under control ALL of the mistakes of our past...... because..... There is a HUGE movement of those with the exact same concerns that are actually OUT THERE doing something about it!!..... On every front... there are groups of fighting 'men in power' with powers of their own!!..... I've been doing a LOT of research in this area of late...... and you can trust me when I say......" There is A hope!!".......GREAT write my friend....... as ALWAYS I can't wait to have one of these conversations in person some day!!......PINNED!!.....Bravo!! ???????.....T xo ?✴❤?
My Dear Tony,
What beautiful words of hope for our progeny, you have penned here. I totally agree with you, that we will save our beautiful Earth from its demise. I love your line, "there are groups of fighting 'men in power' with powers of their own!!". Of course, we need to start right here at home with this imbecile President, who thinks global warming is a hoax, and is the only one who did not sign the Paris Accord.
It is so wonderful to feel your passion for this most important subject of our lifetimes.
What can the two of us do to help change things?
Love you Bro,

There is a lot going on behind the scenes Larry, it's not all doom and gloom, the problem is that the media love a good horror story, it drives up sales but as I said, humans are doing fantastic things to clean up our earth, trees are being planted at a massive rate, wild birds are growing in numbers due to conservation acts, laws are being passed everyday to preserve life on this earth, I use to worry myself about my daughter growing up in a world that could possibly end but I'm more afraid of violence towards her so I will teach her to protect herself rather than let her worry about life.
Dear Gerard,
I do agree with you that so much is being done, to try and save our dear Mother Earth. It still enrages me, that recycling is not mandatory, and our oceans are being filled with billions of tons of garbage, that could be recycled. I was encouraged by the plastic straw bill that Washington State passed, to eliminate them. I believe other states are passing the same law. "The journey of a thousand miles, starts with but the first step".
We will overcome.
Peace and Love,

By the way, excellent poetry, I love the flow.
Dear Gerard,
Thank you so much, for these words, and the most beautiful comment up above.
Peace and Love,

Larry,. I'm usually on the same page with you and that's the case here. So many bad things happening with the planet. We will see animals going extinct. So sad I can't watch. I see the beginning now, my last 3 dogs had seizures, tumors on my dogs, allergies myself and animals. My pond grew a green film on it this year. A friend told me the same thing in Arkansas and she's never seen it before either. The frogs are gone this year! The summer heat is different here in Texas. Only older people seem to notice. The butterflies are rarely seen. .I watch nature and this only a little of what I've noticed..great poem..I like how you boldly speak the truth..we need more Larry's in this world...Love, Terry Kay
My Dear Terry,
Your words about all the beauties that once abounded, but are no longer here, coupled with the saddest story of your last three doggies, having to suffer from mankind's greed, has brought tears to my eyes. Although, I still feel there is time, if we all devote ourselves to saving it, that our World can survive.
Thank you for your heartfelt comment.
And along with the World needing more "Larry's", it also needs more beautiful people like you.
Love,

Hello Larry...
I have a few questions of course, and I prefer to know facts so I did some research and it appears as if you didn't let him finish...
Are you familiar with geoengineering and why it's important that it shouldn't be stopped to quickly once it starts?
Have you researched when it first began?
That's more with Science than Politics or is it?
Have you researched the reasons for it?
The effects on humans?
I guarantee that you will find some interesting information stemming back at least 50 years...
I watched the State of The Union Address and I'm sure I'm not the only one...
Did you by chance participate in the poll?
I recall when all that recycling business started and I recall no one actually started it until then...
As far as emissions Massachusetts had/has a Vehicle State Inspection along with several other States...
If the vehicle doesn't pass it gets a rejection sticker and you have so many days to fix the problem and have it reinspected or you have to take it off the road...
My research has brought me well informed into the Future...
Even with all good efforts it's going to get a lot worse before we could have ever expected it..
I could still be here with many others in 30 years and will most likely see a lot more things than you will...
Stop trying to make decisions for generations that you will never see the results anyway...
You're basing a lot on your hate, you're not looking at what's coming...
If you were, you would base it on the Future of the people and your Children and theirs and they will have to live and adjust to it all...
I am preparing because, I know even if I ever become extremely rich I will never be part of the elite and they're not going to save my ass...
Hugs again...
Hi Sparrowsong,
"Stop trying to make decisions for generations that you will never see the results anyway..."
What kind of a statement is this? We all need to make decisions for our future generations, and save Earth from it's demise.
You still avoid the fact that Trump is the only one to not sign the Paris Accord, saying that global warming is a hoax.
As for geoengineering, that is just a fancy word for "fracking", which of course Trump is a big proponent of, because he's in bed with all the energy companies who don't care about its after effects on Mother Earth.
Also, we are well aware of the Emission Laws in Massachusetts, Linda's home state, and where we lived for several years.
Lastly, needless to say, we did not watch "Traitor Trump's" bullshit State of the Union speech.
"Lock Him Up".
Peace and Love,
Larry xxx
