Unnatural Foliage for M lady Pammy

tetrameter sonnet

 

 

Unnatural foliage

 

The hedges here are gaily clad

in plastic bags of every hue

This makes me sad and makes me mad.

these cast off carriers spoil the view.

Of all inventions which I curse

 created by mans fertile mind.

I cannot think of one that’s worse

than plastic bags folks leave behind.

They are used once then thrown away.

They hang in tatters from the trees

 A sight that’s common place today

 waving like banners in the breeze.

I really cannot understand

 why they are not completely banned.
