National Poetry Month Day 29: Forgotten Things

It’s a two for one special today, with a double poem based on the prompt, Forgotten Things.

Forgotten Things

Yesteryear
in rose colour
Wistful
for the old days

Child labour
Repressed rights
Subjugation

~*~

Technology
across the world
Abundant
free communication

Abused speech
drowning compassion
in white noise.
