The ground is a part of me.
On which you all are on. You walk, you drive, you fall.
Where the trees stand so tall. The grass grows so long. On which even snow falls upon.
The sky.
Which is a site that most love to look upon.
I trap gasses in the atmosphere to protect the earth
Which you live on.
I cry rain to grow your crops so you can still live on.
Can't you see what I do? Cmon.
I provide so much just to be treated like a pawn.
The luxurious life you live is not going to last so long.
You once beautiful creatures have changed too much.
You once roamed upon me in wonder.
Now, I must ponder what caused you so much hunger.
You all have fed into greed by slowly getting rid of me.
Without my beautiful trees, there will be no oxygen to breathe.
So much greed, without crops, what is there to eat?
Can’t you see? How you are slowly killing me.
I’m dying so obviously. How can’t you see?
Are you deliberately ignoring me?
Well I’ll show you! Just you wait and see!

It’s really good ! I like it 🙂 really speaking from the leafs perspective ... well done ) you have given that little leaf so much feeling
Words so adept
Rhyming all the way
Natures connect
Somehow which we disconnect
It’s beautiful
Putting emphasis
Little leaf
In our run for more
We forgot the most crucial of all
It’s lovely
an intriguing concept,
an important topic,
a wonderful read, thanks for sharing
