Do you see it? The destruction? The hurt? The People, the birds, the rivers, the pain The cry from the the trees, the fish and the dirt All of this destruction for what? Your gain. You replace homes for a thicker wallet You do not think about your actions Before you decide, to just install it Not about impaction, Self satisfactions Take a step back, look at the trees The fish that leap, the birds that sing The way they sway when caught by breeze The kids smiles when their first baits on string Is this destruction really worth the wealth? In sacrifice for our environment's health?
Reflection During this project I learned what a sonnet is, how they are written, how to ryme in the ABAB style, learned several different styles of sonnet writting such as Italaian, Elizabethan and others. My whole theme is about how much the enviorment is destroyed foe money and who and what is effected by this. All about the effects on people, fish, trees, birds, rivers etc. That is why I chose to title my sonnet "Wealth for health". I am very proud of my final outcome and even though I might have changed a couple of little details, overall I am thrilled with how well it turned out. I espeacially am very passionate about the issue and I love how the ryhming adds flow as you read it.
