I bid you, with all due respect,
let’s leave our shoes by the door
Yours and my work is not done
Poetry will bless us, I do implore

Salutations to all our Paper Poetry friends,

It is with heartfelt gratitude and a humble twittle that I greet you. And it is with respect, that I give thanks to the bountiful planet we call home — the planet that sustains us — the planet to which we each have a duty to care and keep healthy for all who succeed us.

It is, therefore, with much appreciation that we thank those who joined us at Paper Poetry to celebrate World Environment Day with their poetic responses to Indubala Kachhawa’s June prompt : Get Your Shoes On (and do your bit for the environment).
