The Blue Planet

Somewhere along the way

compassion is lost

humanity ,empathy

buried deep down

never to surface,

wars raging on

people killing people.

Earth, our beautiful planet,

pillaged and plundered.

Our home

filled with everything dear,

slowly deteriorating

waste mountains springing up

dwarfing even the mightiest,

seas choking with debris.

The world slowly changing

The green valleys

giving way 

to rocky slopes

The forests slowly

disappearing,

mutilated and benumbed

 the animals, homeless

 dying one by one.

The sea crying silently

Its creatures 

choking and dying.

The Earth is changing

what we had is no more.

 wake up!

 before it\'s too late

care for our world

Our beautiful blue planet.
