Learning Task 1: Read the poem below. Answer the guide questions. Write your answer in your notebook. Warned by: Sylvia Stults The sands of time have rendered fear Blue skies on high no longer clear Stars were bright whence they came Now dimmed, obscured, pollution's haze. Crystal clear our waters gleamed Fish abundant, rivers streamed Ocean floors sandy white Now littered, brown, pollution's plight. Trees towered high above Trunks baring professed love Birds chirping from sites unseen Gone, paper joined pollution's team. One can't blame pollution alone As they say, you reap what you've sown So let us plant a better seed Tear out old roots, cultivate, weed. Protect what has been given for free Our waters, skies, wildlife and trees For once they're gone, don't you say Consider yourself warned of that fatal day.​
