TOO MUCH OF NOT ENOUGH

TOO MUCH OF NOT ENOUGH

 The darling buds of May
The consumers of cosmetics eye

   Not enough nurses

 The birds at their young in the nest
The footballers at their bank accounts

    Not enough police officers

 The flowers in their fields
The consumers of their fashions

   Not enough food

 The sea pebbles roaring 
The cars metal boxed

   Not enough housing 

 The dawn and the dusk
The latest fashions be damned 

   Not enough teachers

 The sunshine behind closed eyes
The holidaymakers who need a holiday

   Too much loneliness

 The children of the buttercups 
The world wide cobweb 

   Too much aggression
   
How many too manys
Before too fast is to starve 

  Too many distractions

 Too late
 It’s too late
    
 WHEN WILL ENOUGH BE ENOUGH
