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.

Very true words Jayasree, we need to save our planet from its imminent destruction by homo sapiens.

Good write J.
Yes in places - all is OK, until man (mankind) comes along and messes it up.
Until EVERYONE realises they must do their bit we are fighting a losing battle.
We are one humanity, we have one home.
It's about time EVERY religious movement through it's weight behind saving the home god created for us.
This world is stronger than you know. Nature will always win in the end. The perspective should be that we are killing ourselves, not this beautiful world. Good poem though
Yes, nature always wins in the end. That's what's happening now, the earth is healing, slowly. We human beings, foolish we are, thinks we are the masters. If each one of us took steps to nurture and love nature, the earth will be a beautiful place to live.
