Please do not hesitate to read the wonderful poem by written for this picture:
Variegated hues The tones of trash are bright and cheerful ones, The reds of labels, blues of wrappers, greens Unseen in nature. Hear the angry moans— Environmentalists deplore these scenes.
The hues of rust are variegated ones, Pastels like mints and pinks and baby blues. The garish, changed to watercolor tones By rain or sea, now bows to gentle views.
Just see how nature tries to dull the bright To colors easy on the eye: the gray Of trunks and squirrels, brown of deer. In light And shadow, even green is dapple's play.
To trash I say: you fought the color war And lost. Next time, try pale, and less, not more.
