Everything Comes Back Poem by Jürgen Wagner

Everything Comes Back

Rating: 5.0

When we cherish animals with care
Cows and chickens, pigs so fair
Their strength will empower us, that's true
Will be o u r blessing and happiness too

When we appreciate and tend the trees
Shrubs, herbs, moss, also the greens
How fresh will be the air around!
We'll be vitalized, our being crowned

When we honor rivers gratefully
Oceans, brooks, lakes faithfully
Then we'll be blessed on every day
With pure, clear water, you can say!

When we protect and clean the air
Screw down some high demands, I swear
Life's complications minimize
Health and well-being will arise

But if we disregard the earth
Other beings' life and worth
The dirt and filth will soon return
And poison us - we have to learn!

Stanza 2: Your use of 'estimate' stumps me i.e. I don't know why you use 'estimate'. Of course I don't know all of Europe's secrets either. '.

Stanza 5: I would use 'Other beings' life and worth' OR 'Another being's life and worth'.

Stanza 2: Your 'around/crowned' rhyme is clever & 'crowned' fits the situation also. Stanza 4 is a 'GEM'!
