Time for Greens to see red on rubbish

AMONGST roadside swathes of celandine lies a bag of suppurating household rubbish.

The bag has been torn open. Baby’s nappies, tin cans, plastic packaging, vegetable waste and pieces of newspaper spill out onto the cushion of dark green, heart-shaped leaves and the small, golden flowers, harbingers of spring, shining in the sun. Who could have committed this outrage is unknown, but they live amongst us.

They threw it there in the night – presumably – from the window of a car. Under the cover of darkness they did their foul deed, committed this desecration.
