Earthbound Poem by Sonya Florentino

Earth is much too crowded for me
Earth is much too noisy for me
Earth is much to dirty for me
Earth is much too much for me

Earth is much to cold
Earth is much to hot
Earth is much too painful to touch

Earth is much to wet
Earth is much to dry
Earth is much too damaged it makes me cry

Sometimes I want to ride with the wind
Sometimes I want to flly and be free

But earth is where I am
Earth is where I stand
And if I fall
It's still on earth I land
