Die Lewe Van N Tuinker Abouter
Ek staan in die middel buildings streets traffic coldness.Ek wens 다 kon se dat 다 op n groen tuin staan met roos bushes all around me, like I used to 50years ago
Elke oggend en aand het ek n refreshing shower of dew drops. The rushing of the willow trees woke me up en put me to sleep into the romatic night with stars watching out for me overhead. I miss those times of 50 years ago

I am a porcelain gardengnome. A valuable heirloom that guarded my masteres garden for 3 gnerations. I was handmade by the chinese porcelainmaker and got imported all the way to bakerfield.
Now I am standing on the empty cold balcony in Paris. You say Romantic..no goodness no! It’s far away from thoses picturesque images you have postcards od the eiffel tower. In your What epople don’t see is the grey builng just behind that eiffel tower releasing those deathly clouds of gases, namely carbondioxide. Mostly people are too busy to see the beaty in manmade things that thy see no faults in them.

This world usedto be such a beautiful place filled with riches of nature and proplre living without harming the nature unless absolutely necessary but now, human being are just way stepping the line and making this planet into a mess.Business, entertainment but once it’ ruined the greed for materialialism isnt going to help retrieve the eath.It will be too late.I don’t want the earth to feel bare dirty and broken like a do I once used to serve 3 generations of masters guarding their well looked after garden filledwith the duft of flora but it was replaced wuth a grotesque –roperty and now im looking out the the polluted surroudings of the eiffel tower half fearing and waiting for the day my new masters child to walk into the balcony and “accidentally” smashing me. No im not crying. The acidic air is making my eyes just water

Ek staan in Die middel van geboue,strate, verkeer, die koue en geluide.
Ek is ook gekraak, oud en koud.
Ek wens ek kon sê dat ek met roosbome rondom my omring is, soos ek was

    Mankind is poisoning the planet. Today, enough fossil fuels have been burned and enough forests have been chopped down to increase the highest concentration of carbon dioxide than any point in the past eight hundred millenniums. (528) In the article “The Acid Sea,” Elizabeth Kolbert wrote about how the polluted sea around Castello Aragonese provides us with a glimpse of our future oceans and how it interferes with the chemistry of the ocean. In the article “Our Oceans are Turning into Plastic … are You?,” Susan Casey discusses the negative effects plastic has on the environment. “The Acid Sea” and “Our Oceans are Turning into Plastic … are You?” did an excellent job with providing strong arguments and appeals to inform and persuade the reader that the world is deteriorating and reform is compulsory for the health of the planet.…

    In conclusion, Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” is full of contrasts and irony. As the narrator takes his last look of longing, he knows he must finish his duties. He is tired and cold. The realization that he still has far to go before there is rest is so exasperating that he repeats it to himself. “And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep.”…

    There is one Earth. All people who live on it have to share it, not only with those living today, but with those in centuries to come. What is done today will manifest itself tomorrow, affecting someone, somewhere. Many don’t think about their actions because what they do might not affect them in their own lifetime. As Pope Francis said, “We received this world as an inheritance from past generations, but also as a loan from future generations, to whom we will have to return it!” It is easy to harm the environment because many are ignorant of the consequences of their actions, which have become very routine. Changes in the individual mindset can put into motion a chain reaction. One person can influence many others, and one small change can make a big difference. There have been many figures throughout history that have been great examples of how important it is to respond to the call the Pope has made for environmental action and protection. Some influential activists have been Julia Hill and Wangari Maathai, both being very inspiring through their actions. People should heed…

    Humankind is advancing, but the environment is deteriorating, yet there are changes that the world is still waiting for. Both Yann Arthus-Bertrand in “A Wide Angle View of Fragile Earth” and Elizabeth Kolbert in “The Weight of the World” have an underlying agreement that society is to blame for these environmental changes. Although they persuade the audience in various ways, they have the same main goal: protecting the environment.…

    The season is winter, the time is night, and the place is the woods. The traveller in this poetic piece of literature finds himself caught up in the peace, tranquility, darkness and silence of the woods. The beauty of the falling snow can be seen and felt when the speaker states, “to watch his woods fill up with snow,” (4). The speaker is magnetized by the “lovely, dark, and deep…” (13) woods. He sees himself having left the busyness of everyday life and now enjoying the undisturbed atmosphere that the woods bring. The silence makes the speaker sense a complete separation from all other aspects of reality. There are no other sounds, the traveler says, but the “sweep…

    While reviewing “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”, it should be noted that the key is the rhythm of the language. The first, second, and fourth sentence rime while the third sentence of each rimes with the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd sentence of the next stanza. In relation with the cryptic language draws the question, there is a more sinister back drop of loneliness and depression in this poem much deeper than the level of nature orated by the Narator.…

    The funny thing of all this is that though the earth is getting polluted man is least bothered about it . he doesn’t know that he himself is digging his own grave because pollution not only spoils his own health but also worsens his quality of life. People in cities who are exposed to various kinds of pollution suffer from several ailments like high blood pressure, asthma and skin diseases. Garbage thrown around leads to break out of epidemics like cholera, malaria, chikungunya etc. Poisonous chemicals from the air as well as our water bodies have recently caused an exponential rise in cancer cases.\…

    Om mee te begin kan daar gekyk word na e-pos (elektroniese pos). E-pos is geweldig vinniger as die tradisionele pos sisteme ook bekend as slakke pos. In die moderne tye, 20ste eeu, is die algemene pos sisteme, waarin briewe en ander vorms van pos per hand, voertuig of selfs per perd vervoer is na die verskeie ontvangers , grootliks vervang deur elektroniese pos. Dit is n baie vinniger manier van pos. Elektroniese pos kan binne ;n tydperk van minute die ontvanger bereik. Dit kan dan met gerief gelees word op enige tyd van die dag. Onmiddelike terugvoering kan gebied word wat die sender op sy beurt ook weer vinnig sal bereik. Dit is ook baie meer betroubaar as gewone slakke pos deurdat jy n delivery report of bewys van ontvangs kan aanvra. Dit bied aan jou die sekerheid dat die ander persoon jou boodskap ontvang het en baie konflik kan so vermy word. E-pos is natuurlik ook baie goedkoper. In die ou dae is daar altyd probeer om op papier koste te spaar deur minder pos te stuur, deur slegs aan sekere uitgesoekte individue briewe te stuur. Elektroniese pos laat egter toe dat die stuur van boodskappe tussen baie mense oor groot…
