Mother Earth - A Poem by Me

MOTHER EARTH

    A Poem by Me

Ever since I was little,

I have cared about this thing.

No, it's not Brownie Brittle,

It's not just anything.

Nature is what I am talking about,

Shouldn't have been hard to guess.

It's on my mind day in day out,

This, I'm willing to confess.

Nature is powerful and scary,

So I wouldn't piss off our Mother.

She doesn't have a military,

But she has something other.

She's trying to show us,

Her breaking point is near.

There's nothing left to discuss,

It is all very clear.

We treat her like we are in control,

But oh, how wrong we can be.

When a couple of ozone holes,

Can result in dying seas.

She doesn't have arms or legs,

She doesn't even have a voice.

It's other ways she begs

Us to make the right choice.

Our house is burning,

It can't be denied.

It is concerning,

'Cause it's happening worldwide.

From hurricanes

To acidic seas.

Melting ice

And dying bees.

We still just sit and wait for someone

To change the world for us.

When it should be everyone.

Who can then ignore us?

So here I sit,

Writing these lines.

And I won't quit,

I won't stay on the sidelines.

Do what you can,

And know your worth.

You don't have to be batman

To help save Mother Earth!
