Cutting corners to reach an aim does not mean that the results are going to be good! Nature is much more powerful than we can ever imagine! ~ Regards // paul

Mother Nature is in league with Father Time. He's steadfast, and so very patient, she is more of a live wire. They compliment each other. Man will be the first to complain of being the victim. It's due to idiocy attached to greed and actions. Dump garbage into the water, then complain that there are plastics in the fish? A powerful Senryu, Daver! Keep well, best wishes. love, Mikki

Nature is much more powerful than man and I think many more people need to realize that... You bring an important lesson to our attention with this poem. Great work, Daver!
