The Earth

The earth, our home, we take for granted We ravage and plunder, our greed is enhanced We pollute the air, we poison the seas We destroy the forests, with little ease

The creatures that live, are pushed to the brink Our actions, their fate, we do not think We strip the land, for our own gain Leaving nothing for future, causing only pain

The earth cries out, in silent despair But we turn a blind eye, and do not care We consume and waste, without any end Till there's nothing left, just a barren land

Oh mankind, awake from your slumber See the harm you cause, and change your number For the earth is all we have, and all we'll ever know And if we don't act, it will be gone, forever ago.
