My teacher asked me "What is beautiful?"
And I answered her with "A plume
Of feathers so pretty
Birds who with their beak they groom
That is beautiful to me."

My teacher asked me "What is delicious?"
And I answered her with "A plume
Of steam from a fresh fish
Caught and bought from our lagoon
That is a delicious dish."

My teacher asked me "What is sin?"
And I answered her with "A plume
Of oil thick and miles long
Sure to cause a certain doom
That is definitely wrong."
A poem about my feelings towards the Oil Spill in the gulf of Mexico.

It seems a bit late, but I wasn't happy with it for a long time, and I have nobody to critique my work in any way.

I hope to receive feedback my my watchers instead!

Any ways to improve or to tweak would be greatly appreciated!
