Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
This is a very powerful Zip form poem. Clear message and meaning in two distinct lines. The picture added gives a solid punch in the gut to the reader and adds to the understanding of the poem. Very nicely done!

Comment from Wendy G
A meaningful zip haiku (new to me) and your words contain a lot of truth. Why we persist in polluting our planetI dn't understand. The next generation depends on a clean environment for their survival. Well said. A fine reponse to the prompt.

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
I never heard a zip haiku, it's interesting.
I would not place dashes in the middle of the line and I don't hear the internal rhymes, but I'm not an expert with this form.
I trust I will survive --
if you succeed in clearing my path
Nice poem.

Thank you, Gypsy, I thought that the rules for this prompt asked for the break in each line though I'm not sure, no rhymes were required as far as I know, never mind I had fun trying, as always very much appreciated****kahpot
Comment from June Sargent
You make a powerful point here. If life on this planet is to survive - we need to work together to save it. You did well in responding to the club challenge. Much food for thought.

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
I thought this was well done. You say a lot with just the two lines. "I trust ~ I will survive" conveys a sense of faith which is great. The second line, "if you succeed ~ in clearing my path," shows us that help is needed. I thought with just those two lines you said so much. Great job!

When we were serving in Cambodia, we saw a lot of people who were living around a rubbishy, from which they earned a living, I played my guitar and sung with the kids, well done, blessings Roy
