Whales eating plastic,
Turtles entangled in trash:
Feckless humans play.

The Natural Resources Defense Council has created a petition for President Biden. I signed and made the following edits to their copy. I invite you to sign the petition as well. Feel free to use my edits (if you like the changes I made) or start here and make your own, or just sign with the copy that is already on the NRDC petition. Either way, please sign and/or share with others who can sign. The time is NOW to take action, no matter how large or small, to preserve a climate that is habitable for sustaining life on Earth.

Final Call
She flings her arms around my neck and squeezes me like she’s never going to let me go. My head spins as her lips brush against my cheek. She must be able to feel my heart thumping in my chest. I shuffle backwards and ram my hands into my coat pockets, watching her reach down and heave the rucksack across her shoulders.

This haiku is my first post on Vocal. I'm glad they had the contest - it inspired me to join so I could write something to contribute....and now I plan to write even more! Thank you for visiting! What is one thing YOU are doing to ensure the waters stay blue on our One Earth?
