Kunkletown Road Poem by Elizabeth Fontaine Grieco

Kunkletown Road



The hills are forever rolling with it's dusty
Dirt roads, leading to the great hemlock forests.
Deer are grazing in the open corn fields not
Understanding man's intolerance for their presence.

Streams are feverishly overflowing
Their gold to nature's wild creatures.
Crisp, cool fresh evening air is delightful
And fills my lungs with it's purity;
Life goes at a slow embracing pace.
The blazing orange-rose blushed sunset leaves
One in awe at mother earth's splendor.

Like a clock, the earth is forever moving.
It's pendulum is man regulating, under or over,
Tilting, tilting until an equilibrium is met;
It assures us the arm of life is not yet broken.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Written October 10,1996- A poem written for the lover's of life and nature, as harmful toxic chemicals were about to pollute a nearby stream. Recently, Natural Gas drilling industry continues to develop wetlands, pollute in our river's and stream's and our clean air, spouting out methane gas and accelerating global warming and the melting of our ice caps! Green Renewables are what mankind needs to focus on, for without them, solar and wind, we are doomed. Burning of Fossil Fuels is not the answer!
