Rescue The Rainforests! Poem by Denis Martindale

Redeem yourselves, Mankind, I say!
Escape the loss of land,
So that you save what's left to stay,
Check what the Lord has planned...
Undo the damage borne of greed,
Express more than your grief,
The choices show you must succeed,
Heal now, don't play the thief...
Each evil's stained your hearts too long,
Reflect and then repent,
Act now, while you can right the wrong,
If death you can prevent...
No tears can wipe away what's done,
For truly, lives were lost,
Outweighing all the profits won,
Repent and count the cost...
Each forest that God ever made
Serves Him who rules above,
Take time to change things when you've prayed,
Somehow to prove your love...
