A Big Mushroom! Poem by Ramesh T A

A Big Mushroom!

Rating: 5.0


Mushrooms white or brown are a good nutrient food;
Except the poisonous black all mushrooms are good.

Mushrooms of smoke coming from factory chimneys
And emission of greenhouse gases are depleting ozone
In atmosphere to the point of creating holes that make
Gate way to ultraviolet rays of Sun to directly attack all
Causing skin and eye diseases and greenhouse effect
Due to pollution leading to long droughts and flash floods!

Global warming common now causes climatic changes
Of extremity with hottest days and bitter cold seasons!

Pipe dreams poets indulge in to produce warning poems;
Smokes of mushroom intellectuals puff off for solutions;
Harming self they do harmless service to others good!
But a big mushroom of nuclear bomb will blow off Earth full!

Science and technology has brought comfort and entertainment to some and hardship, polution, misery, wars and other conflicts to may more. we live in a selfish world, many people have forgotten caring for and love. A great write with an ominous message for our future.
