Sweeping sun-drenched dust
he passes by me,
each familiar morning.
Does he know of something
that I don’t…
His nod leaves me bemused,
but I recall his noble effort.
He is a collector
of everything carelessly discarded.
The sole keeper of the unwanted,
he sees our unscrupulous side.
Each wasted excess baggage
perhaps sits tied up
at a secret place, he guards…
His meaningful look conveys,
it is still not too late
to sift through the rejected
and look back once more
at the sinful packages we left.
They cry out in heaps,
to be counted as misdeeds,
in the final court of conscience!

~ Recycling tip at work :
For office birthday parties, instead of using plastic/foam plates we can innovatively cut up the cake box in different shapes to serve as funky cake holders! We tried this recently and it was a huge hit.
Being landscapers, the plates were in the shape of leaves :)
Well said! Let's reduce, reuse and recycle! & no job is menial, trust me, I'm a recruiter and know well that each job needs a very different skill set!
ReplyDeleteSo true. But I am sure that collector has a lot more up his sleeve...he is in disguise...
