"Twinkle, Twinkle, 'Pretty Stars'!
I sorely know what you are..."
-- by Frank C Yue
Plea 1 (of 2):
To certain Juice and Booze Drinkers
To certain Juice and Booze Drinkers
to please clean up your acts!
Twinkle, Twinkle,
"Pretty Stars"!
I sorely know what
you are...
When you appear on
the ground
Close by the
children's play-ground,
When I see your
distinctive mark
In my neighbourhood
green park.
Tell me, Twinkle
"Pretty Stars",
Did you come from
near or far?
In a moment of blind
rage,
You vaulted onto the
stage
To play out in
compliance
Your past master's 'defiance'.
You're now basking in
the sun,
But kids in fear from
you run!
Clear, brown, green
-- You're made of glass,
Like sharp diamonds
in the grass.
Will you hear its
plaintive cry
When a bleeding child
asks why?
In tears:
"Mamma, who would do such a thing?"
Throwing glass
bottles like birds on the wing!
Plea 2 (of 2):
To The e-Reader,
When you're jogging or walking
Should you come across sparkling
Broken glass on the ground,
Please do look around
For discarded plastic bags or cup.
Put it in and tie it up;
Dispose of this safely.
You'll be so happy --
A child could be out of Harm's way --
Count as your Good Deed of the Day!
(When no 'container' is to be seen
I put the pieces on my palm and in-
To, I throw them, the nearest rubbish bin.)
Go to the 'links' below -- Wow!
And see for yourself how
One's deeds, including of course good deeds,
Might not go unrewarded, indeed!
So -- Come one, come all, O!
Look for and pick up "fallen Pretty Stars" all --
(Not just in the 'Diamond Park' in Arkanas) --
Do be very careful though.
